Paul S. Briggs
Profiling, 2021
Glazed stoneware, oxidation, c6
13h x 8w x 10d in
Refuted Vessel
"At a time when irony is a mainstream aesthetic force and the art object is frequently made coherent via the glitter of populare culture, work such as Briggs's is rare and strangely daring. Abstraction becomes a visual manifestation of poetry, bearing literary notions of metaphor and symbolism."
