Cup and Saucer from the collection of South Carolina Arts Commission

Cup and Saucer, 1980

raku ceramic

9 x 6.75 x 4 in

“My work is altered from the wheel toward geometric and organic configurations. The pots emerge from a composite of thrown and molded slab elements, an architectural approach to the vessel that produces forms very free of roundness. Glazing of the work takes the blankness from the bisque and reinforces, though sometime negates the three-dimensional form. The intent of the glaze imagery is to orientate the pottery object to its “household” (i.e., casual) surroundings; serving bowls, Queen Anne chairs, teapots, tables, and sofas float upon the surface creating an animated iconography of objects which lend particular context a neutrally aloof museum/gallery setting does not.”
