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 in widely varied, often unimaginable shapes. As I discover each one I feel I am being introduced to 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 Many Small Spiked Feet. Using my favorite dark chocolate clay body, I hand build each piece. They are then coated with a black glaze that has a remarkable depth, showing the clay body, the artist's hand, while yielding a fine sheen. It is black with dark green undertones. The pieces are fully fired. Signed with Artist's Chop underneath.
