About the Item

Discover the unique blend of art and function in Roy McMakin's "Untitled (Vases about Language and Redemption)," a 2004 collection that exemplifies his inventive style. This set of seven Heath Ceramics, part of an edition limited to 60, demonstrates McMakin’s knack for transforming everyday objects into contemplative art pieces. McMakin, a Seattle-based artist, is celebrated for his use of "termite art" principles, subtly altering familiar forms to challenge traditional notions of utility and meaning. These vases encapsulate his philosophy, inviting reflection on language and redemption through their exquisite craftsmanship. Recognized by its inclusion in the permanent collection of SFMOMA, this work underscores McMakin's place within contemporary art circles. This set is an unparalleled addition for collectors seeking to own innovative pieces that seamlessly integrate creative thought with practical design.
