Description:

Debra Giller Sculpture Blue Blossoms
Ceramic
Somerville, Massachusetts, 2005
Abstract organic form comprised of intertwined tubes and layered pods and sculpted petals, various glazes in purples, blues, yellows, and green, repaired damage, approx. 22 x 13 x 13 1/2 in.

Note: "Debra Giller... plays with the intricate shapes and biological associations evoked in mechanical objects as well as the interior worlds of the cellular life of flowers and other organisms. Using exaggeration, multiple layering and complex combinations of clay forms, Giller gives shape to her intuitive understanding of the interior forces behind material objects with technical rigor. Multiple firings, several layers of different glazes and carving on the work bring out rich layers of texture and color." (From the Exhibit "Lush Fusions: Ceramic Sculpture", University of Michigan, April 21-June 16 2008.)
Estimate $250-350
