DescriptionA large cylindrical earthenware sculpture with highly colored glazes in red, orange, green, blue, purple, white, and brown with gloss, matte, and metallic finishes. The glazes are poured, dripped, smeared, and dribbled around the exterior and interior surfaces. A pool of glaze appears to spill out of one side of the cylinder’s edge at its base. A small rectangular earthenware brick at the bottom of the cylinder with a top layer of glaze elevates one side of the work. The piece bears the artist’s signature “Mabry” on the bottom in blue matte underglaze.Exhibition HistoryPassages, Belger Crane Yard, Kansas City, Missouri, February 6-April 18, 2015.
