Light
"Light" is inspired by the black woman in my life. I've spent most of my ceramic journey studying mammy cookie jars, lawn jockeys, and pickaninnys. This is my first time at creating a black woman into a light and seeing the utilitarianism of the object showcase the inherent beauty of the black woman. The figure is ceramic and an original design. This is a working lamp and can be shown with or without the lamp shade.
