Go players <3
image description: a tableau of ceramic sculptures. Two vaguely humanoid blob figures with discs for faces, one white and one black, face each other across a yellow Go board. The figures each have a Go bowl at their right-hand side.
also, for those interested: this is a fanart!
listen (lowers my voice) listen. I watched Hikaru no Go and it hurt me. so naturally I did fanart about it. the black figure represents Hikaru—he has terrible posture but he looks eager to play. he's looking upward like a child. the white figure all neat and upright is Sai. Hikaru is bigger than Sai because Hikaru eclipses Sai eventually. Sai shrinks as Hikaru grows...

Cry a River - work-in-progress
cast plaster with bronze powder & wash, dyed found stoneware, schlag-metal leafed & lacquered found object (circuit-board drilling backer), slumped iridescent black glass - 9¼"x 10"x 1½" (as is)
This will be mounted within a shadowbox frame and probably have further elements added. This piece began about ten years ago when I discovered the masonite-like circuit-board drilling backer while dismantling a decorative cloth-wrapped oriental-style box which had been discarded. After stripping the cloth off the board and removing all the adhesive residue it was leafed and sealed with tinted lacquer. A Another inch-wide strip of this box-backer was used in another piece, GOLDEN DREAM: PERFORATIONS (see below), but this larger salvaged piece sat unused in the studio, and though it was considered as a possible element in any number compositions over the years it was always shelved again as being not-quite-right. Finding the stoneware fragment with the concentric circular pattern (a bottom-side-up fragment of a large broken hand-thrown platter) and retrieving the old lip demo (which had been fitted with a magnet and sat attached onto various computers as a 'mascot' for many years), and then after doing some texture test-slumps of various iridescent glass pieces these all just came-together. Gotta make the shadowbox frame to fit next.
GOLDEN DREAM: PERFORATIONS
plywood cradle, gold-painted joint cement, paint-wiped Virginia slate, blued steel found object, dyed maple burl, schlag-metal leafed found object (circuit-board drilling backer), dichroic glass - 13¾"x 13"x 2½" - 2016 - sculptural painting exhibited once, in 2022

Red String Mug
had a ton of fun with this red string mug. Hopefully the clear glaze will highlight the red more. In the future I'll add more "pins" but I wasn't sure how overpowering the red would look (and I'm still mot certain!). I really wanted to show off the map, too! It's a map of London transfer by elan transfers!
Also fun fact I have been given 4 different interpretations of this mug! Two are cute and two are creepy! I know what I was thinking when I designed it, any interpretations?
