A glamorous production of handmade ceramic by Irish artist Nuala O’Donovan will take your breath away. Stunning buds cling to their position, their patterns are unpredictable, yet they are suggesting a common goal. Its almost as if some have been traumatized or severed, so re-growth accounts for the inconsistencies. Like a bouquet of calla lilies, they rest in splendor and fill us with awe. The wonder of their existence challenges the mind

The artist explains, “The evidence of a response to random events visible in patterns in nature, is testament to the ability of living organisms to recover, to respond, and to continue growing and changing. It is the imperfections in the patterns caused by a unique experience that are evidence of the life force in living organisms.”
