Triple Vase
Kathryn Finnerty is known for earthenware wheel-thrown and/or hand-built decorative and functional vessel forms. Heavily influenced by 19th-century British Victorian majolica, Finnerty develops surfaces focused on the overall ornamentation of the vessel. Glazes are applied over a white base coat. Finnerty uses sprigging, raised line and sgraffito techniques.
Later work looks to the natural world for subject matter although her interests in the European decorative ceramic sensibilities are still evident. The functional vessel form is consistent throughout Finnerty?s career.
