Last Chance!!!! to see Fluctuation + Decoration. Shana Salaff's solo exhibition closes on Thursday 27th!!

"The pieces in Fluctuation and Decoration cover the range of forms that I currently find inspiring to create. Many were made specifically for this show over the last three months. It was inspiring to have a purpose and a deadline to help push me to explore new techniques. I found myself focusing on sets and groupings, seeing the pieces as part of a family of forms, surfaces and color. I was inspired by historical ceramic pieces, the process of making, and the flowers in my garden. I hope my work evokes happiness!"
