About the Item

Artist Commentary: My work is spontaneous, like writing or dancing to the energy I feel. I begin with slabs in a puzzle-like formation, take a deep breath, and exhale what I feel into each and every piece, drawing and stamping, rolling and marking across the blank canvas. Once I feel like the expression is complete, once I see the marks are making sense, I stop. When the clay dries, I go into it with color, lead by intuition and vibration of colors and how they make harmony. I like surprises that pop out, so I add bits of brightly colored glass that add spark and shine. My work tries to communicate the feeling of energy moving around us, if we could ""see"" it as well as feel it. Keywords: ceramic, wall sculpture, abstract, colorful, installation Artist Biography: As a former fashion & textile designer, Janine's ceramic pieces are a natural extension of her first career in the clothing industry. Having traveled across Europe and Morocco in her late 20's, Janine reinvented her artistic self by discovering her passion as a ceramicist and shifted gears to the career she continues to define in the medium of clay. She brings together her passion for color, texture, and form in her unique pieces which primarily focus on works for the wall, installations, and commissions. Her free-form drawings on clay, from the Time & Space collection, can be found in corporate settings, hospitals, and private collections across the country. Each piece is one-of-a-kind and can be created to fit in any setting. All her work tends to be in multiples that utilize the space in a vast and creative way. Janine loves to bring glass into her clay work to add bits of color and contrast, and she is always expanding on her work with new and innovative ideas.
