Breaking Ground is a coming together of ceramic art and functional pottery. From expressive hand made wall hangings that are certain to stir the critical thinking process to the sculpture of stoic faces that might inspire a familiar experience or memory. Beautiful, whimsical mugs, cups, plates and vases made for everyday use and meant to coax a smile or encourage a laugh. Wondrous flowers made with clay and buttons, visions of graffiti, hedgehogs, aliens and tattoo imagery pleasingly loud with color and sure to beckon.
Exhibit runs from June 8th to July 27th, 2019
