About the Item
Artist : Genevieve E. Flynn
Title : Life's Struggles Teapot
Materials : Brass, Silver
Date : 2016
Dimensions : 8 x 4 x 6 in.
Description : "This teapot was created in response to the political rhetoric that was happening in 2015/2016 and continues to this day. The idea that lower income people did not have insurance through our system was appalling to me. Today, when I look at this piece it is like finding an artifact in some archaeological dig that represents the down trodden of our society for far too many years." - Flynn
"The body of this fabricated vessel is made of brass sheet. The handle has been created from a metals technique called anticlastic forming. The lid has three layers of brass "discs" and a sterling silver "loop" at the top for a finial. Silver wire circles the base. The form was a perfect teapot before I distorted it by hammering and collapsing areas. Once it was highly polished, I applied a patina to distress the surface."

Too Much Tea
Located in West Hollywood, CA
Sharon Brooks, the imaginative creator of the mixed media assemblage sculpture "Too Much Tea," describes it as a whimsical and delightful artwork. The centerpiece of this piece is a silver tray, cleverly supported by pounded silver cones that securely hold a wooden plate in place through drilled holes. This arrangement not only provides stability but also adds a touch of resilience to the sculpture.
In her creative manipulation, Brooks has added a playful twist by incorporating the head of a doll sitting atop a teapot. It appears as if the doll is emerging from the teapot, with her arms playfully sticking out of the snout. This unique concept adds a sense of charm and intrigue to the artwork, reinventing the traditional tea-serving experience.
The sculpture is further enhanced by the presence of multiple trays...
