Terracotta, steel staples
5.25 x 5.25 x 2.5 in
This piece is an abstraction of the letter A; it also suggests an arch. The steel staples added at the bottom are fired into the piece and oxidize slightly in the firing process.
This work is available through Cove St. Arts in Portland through 2025 and will be featured in Interdimensional from July 24 to September 20. Please contact the gallery for information and sales.
All of the clay components are slab-constructed terracotta, finished in low-fire oxidation. Each piece is fired at least twice. The unique surfaces are generated by means of layering: of multiple glazes or glazes applied over liquid clay slips. Other materials are noted where used. All dimensions are height x width x depth.
