complex glaze patterning to her own work. Often her forms serve a dual role=20=

and as a wall painting. When taken off the wall, the curve of the tile=20
becomes the foot of the dish. Likewise, the hollow of the interior makes a=20
voluptuous container. The glazed surface accentuates and negates the form, t=

advantage of the structure, but working independently of it as well. This wo=
