WOMAN VASE

Back

I called this pot a Woman vase. It was made in 1962. 30 cms h. It was fired to earthernware temperature, unglazed, and the decoration owes something to Aboriginal rock art paintings, and also 'body' decoration. At the time I made it I thought is was of 'breakthrough' significance, if only to me. It was exhibited at my first major exhibition in Sydney all those years ago, at the Rudy Komon Gallery. In one sense I am sorry it is not still in my possession.
