Dimensions of a single set of components:  72’H x 8”W x 24”D

Medium:  unglazed stoneware

Date of Completion:  ongoing research

Description:  Repeating components to be mounted on a wall for seating.  The work uses the metaphor of draped clothing to investigate the imagery and formal structure of architectural terracotta cladding, bringing the figural to the functional.  The stoneware components were originally extruded through a template and drapped into simple concave molds of varying diameters.

Commissioning Agency: The European Ceramic Work Centre, Art + Architecture Fellowship.
