Honored to be a part of this show!

PLATE: a celebration

http://www.mudfire.com/plate-2014.htm

This show revolves around the PLATE - the center of the food universe. We all eat on plates, plates mean family dinner, holiday time, or Tuesday night on the couch with the dog eating pizza. Plates call to mind home, dinner at Grandma's house, or paying homage to a wonderful new recipe or CSA box full of veggies and meat.

This show has plates from many artists working in color, shape, form, and glazing techniques galore. This is hands-down the most stunning installation in the gallery this year. It just looks amazing to see all of these plates at once!
