Jennifer McCurdy, an artist based in Martha’s Vineyard, creates exquisite porcelain vessels that are a testament to the beauty and dynamism of the ocean. Her work is a harmonious blend of art and nature, drawing inspiration from the organic forms and patterns found in the environment. McCurdy’s pieces often feature a swirling or spiraling effect, reminiscent of waves, gales, and other natural phenomena. The delicate play of light and shadow across the surfaces of her sculptures brings them to life, evoking the constant movement and energy of the sea.
In her artistic process, McCurdy shapes translucent porcelain on a potter’s wheel, then carves intricate patterns to add texture and depth. The addition of gold or platinum leaf on the interior of some pieces introduces a warm glow, enhancing their visual impact. Her work has been showcased in various exhibitions and is celebrated for its unique ability to capture the essence of the ocean’s ever-changing landscape.
