ALISON OWEN

Alison Owen creates ceramic vases that hover between two and three dimensions. Each vase is made from slab-rolled clay cut into shapes like a dress-maker’s pattern, and pieced together to create forms that are gently dimensional yet invoke the pictorial plane. One or both sides might be decorated with a drawing, painting, or collage depicting relics, rainbows, figures, or flowers drawn in the tradition of the still lifes that so often represent vases themselves.
