Listed ceramics artist Nancy Kibens (1925-2025) created this monumental pottery sculpture in 1993. Raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Nancy lived in St. Louis, Missouri, where she made her Japanese-inspired art sculptures. She exhibited in shows and galleries and shows in Missouri, Illinois, Michigan, Massachusetts, and Maryland and won awards for her pottery.
This sculptural piece stands 17 1/2 inches tall, measures 12 inches wide at the top and 7 1/2 inches wide at the bottom and weighs a hefty 8 3/4 pounds. The exterior is covered in a matte glaze that's predominantly a deep olive green with areas of tan and rust. The speckled inner glaze is pale gray blue with blotches and drips of rust. Each side has two protruding round knobs, a pierced hole and incised lines. The shape starts wide at the top, curves down to an oval pointed base; the two sides are open at the top and join each other about 6 inches down. The bottom is hand signed "Kibens 93."
