Oh. My. This is the perforated, pokey, smooth, organic ceramic work of Irish sculptor Frances Lambe. Instead of trying to explain this myself, I’m going to let this paragraph, found on Frances’ site, do all of the work in describing these pieces:

The work springs from visual research into disparate areas of interest including geography, biology, botany and astronomy. She is fascinated by the visual ‘inter-relatedness’ of life on our planet. Life forms that exist underwater mimic those on land. Visual information distilled from a variety of sources is combined in individual pieces. Observed effects of weathering on surfaces influences the form and texture of the work.

Yes. Well said.

    Gorgeous work! You might like the work of ceramic artist Monika Laskowska. She’s from Poland but has lived in Ireland and the US. Her work shares the minimal elegance of Lambe’s work. Beautiful.

    Your work is absolutely incredible. The finesse and grace of each piece is mind blowing. Wish I could see them in “person”…and perhaps even touch them. Very tactile.
