Tray 1999

"Tray" is a ceramic artwork created by Marleen Jack in 1999. The piece consists of a tray, a covered dish, and a smaller dish, all crafted in a distinctive, organic style. The artist uses a textured, layered glaze, resulting in earthy tones of green, brown, and white. The form of the tray, with its subtly curved shape, resembles a leaf, adding to the organic aesthetic. The covered dish has a simple handle, while the smaller dish features an interesting, asymmetrical form. The piece is a testament to Jack's mastery of ceramic artistry, displaying both technical skill and an appreciation for natural forms. It is currently on display at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
