Ron CarlsonCeramic Portrait Face Of A Lady Hanging Plate
About the Item
This is a one of a kind original plate made by southern California artist, Ron Carlson. Its dimensions are 5.75 x 5.75 x 1.5 in (L x H x D). A certificate of authenticity will follow delivery.
Lead free; hand washing highly recommended. Safe for microwave use unless there are shiny metallic lustres on the piece.
As a sculptor, Carlson is focused on investigating his own relationship to the materials. He explains, “the primary purpose of my work is the process itself, a self-indulgent interaction with the materials, ideas, and techniques. The work that involves imagery is a combination of symbols, subliminal observations that often reflect the contemporary human condition or just illustrates my life and experiences.” Many of his porcelain works are usable as functional vessels. He notes, “my ceramic work is an investigation into the sculptural dynamics of the vessel form,” thereby challenging the notion of a ‘formal sculpture.’ The playfulness of Carlson’s work invites the viewer to physically pick up his pieces, open them up, and explore their own relationship with art, and what art can be.

Ron Carlson received both his Bachelor’s of Art and Masters of Art from San Diego State University in 1972 and 1974. After completing his education, Carlson assisted in the development of the UCSD Crafts Center, where he became the director and held the position for 38 years. From 1977 to 2011 Carlson worked to build the most comprehensive crafts program on the West coast. Up until his retirement from the program in 2011, Carlson devoted his time to teaching ceramics. He also taught neon and glassblowing both locally and in Japan over the years. As a sculptor, Carlson is focused on investigating his own relationship to the materials.
