Broski - Sculpture - Boat on Waves - 'Liberate Your Fears/Take the Journey'
Combining all of Cathy Broski's well-known styles, "Liberate Your Fears/Take the Journey" is a piece meant to inspire it owner. It shows a female figure sailing into the future with their head held high.
For more than three decades, Cathy Broski has been recognized for archetypal figures, nest bowls, dogs, and hands. Her love of these abstract figures took on a new life after a summer trip to Greece in her youth where they have remained an inspiration. Cathy gained an appreciation for the weathered and texture patina of found Grecian relics. She strives to replicate this look on her own pieces.
Cathy begins by throwing the base of stoneware clay on a potter's wheel and finishes the form by hand-building structure onto the clay. Then, pieces are finished with her own handmade glazes.
