About The Work
Her first foray into the ceramic arts, one lump or three perfectly blends Amy Sillman’s acclaimed, quirky, and wry painting style with pottery. Sillman executed this delightful limited edition on the occasion of her first museum survey, which was staged in 2013 at Boston’s ICA. Here, the off-kilter, organic shapes of the vases are in dialogue with the cartoonish illustrations. Based on drawings from 2012 and in her lighthearted signature style, the red abstract shapes take on ball-like qualities, while the elongated limbs—an arm here and a leg there—extend around the vessels, humorously stretching from front to back.
