About the Item

This distinctive wall sculpture by master ceramicist Steven Heinemann was inspired by the natural world. Hive’s organic form is enhanced by its creamy white palette. Heinemann sanded into the surface of the clay to reveal air pockets caused by casting that add intriguing detail. The Canadian artist is widely recognized to have redefined the limits of ceramic art. “Craft is about honouring the physical circumstances we find ourselves in--these bodies, this amazing world, this earth…” Steven Heinemann Steven Heinemann earned an MFA from Alfred University, NY, in 1983 and has taught in Canada and the US. Since his first solo exhibition in 1982 at the Ontario Crafts Council, he has exhibited continuously. Heinemann’s work is held in museums the world over. He has received many national and international awards, including the Saidye Bronfman Award, Canada’s highest recognition of achievement in contemporary craft.
