Mary McGill Ceramics
Ceramics, Figurative sculpture, Bronze
Bowls and Platters
When creating my functional work, I use lines, texture, and chaos. The clay is thrown, rolled, torn and ripped then attached to create a tension between a disciplined, balanced core and an expressive and sometimes explosive flow of movement. With the addition and subtraction of clay I strive for an overall balance and calm within the chaos.. I create seemingly functional vessels that may have a bit of mystery about their actual practical purpose, or utility.
