I've long been fascinated by Annabeth Rosen's bulbous ceramic work, with its parts piled up like so many gourds or buoys or (pardon the expression) intestines. But recently, Fleisher/Ollman Gallery shared some images of Rosen's work in progress in her studio, and with a new understanding of the scale involved, I'm more amazed. See also: Rosen's Waver installation in the Denver Art Museum's current exhibition, "Overthrown: Clay Without Limits."
Can't get enough craft? Neither can we. Heck Yes Craft is a series of visual blog posts with a simple mission: to show off amazing work. Come back every Friday for more.
