Barbro Åberg
Medium: Glazed ceramic, made from clay with volcanic grit
Dimensions: 21.5 in high x 25.25 in wide x 2.5 in deep
Åberg's works, made largely in black and white, are often purely sculptural, even playfully non-utilitarian. Rough surfaces inspired by geology are set in contrast to a refined elegance—new shapes inspired by fossils, old bones, or coral, forms full of light, negative space, and a tensile strength, made possible by the perlite and paper in her clay.
Signed and dated: BA 14.
