About the Item
Julia Florence’s Be Careful With Me (2024) is a striking example of the artist’s signature style—where hand-built ceramics become vessels for bold narratives and emotive symbolism. Rendered in stoneware, the piece features a powerful black panther prowling through a field of delicate red blooms, its piercing yellow gaze commanding attention. The composition evokes both strength and vulnerability, inviting reflection on the balance between beauty and danger, protection and exposure.
What makes this piece unique is Florence’s ability to fuse illustrative detail with sculptural form. Her background in fine art and classical drawing is evident in the panther’s finely articulated features, while the expressive surface speaks to her interest in Japanese ceramic traditions and the emotional resonance of natural imagery. The glossy finish and vibrant contrasts add a tactile, almost theatrical presence to the work.
As with much of Florence’s practice, Be Careful With Me reflects a deeper exploration of emotional boundaries and the complexity of the inner world—offering not just visual impact but an intimate, psychological layer that continues to unfold over time.
