Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "My ceramic sgraffito jar, lid, and saucer are designed to visually narrate and represent Jerrie Cobb’s journey and life’s impact. The saucer represents Earth and aviation, featuring planes circling the globe to reflect Cobb’s early career as a pilot and her global humanitarian missions. The jar itself serves as a transition between Earth and space, illustrating movement."
