About the Item

A new series of small sculptures in the Modern Totemic vein. Not exactly humanistic, but they do have feet and personality. They are abstracted, offering a feeling of historic beings, of something from the past, or the future. There is life but where is it from? While making these I think of all the different life forms found on earth, from the molecular to the human, to the inanimate. From the deepest oceans to the sky, life forms exist inwidely varied, often unimaginable shapes. As I discover each one I feel I am being introduced to someone, something with a life and history of its own. As in most of my work I am interested in abstracting the idea, simplifying it to its most basic essence. Here it is a Hollow Oval Form With Eight Pointed Feet. Using my favorite dark chocolate clay body and hand building each piece, each foot, the first in this edition are coated in a rich black slip. This slip, or liquid clay, has a remarkable depth, showing the clay body, the artist's hand, while yielding a fine sheen. It is black with dark brown undertones. The pieces are fully fired. Since it is not glazed, it is still porous, so do not submerge in water. Signed with Artist's Chop underneath.
