Secret Succulent

April 10, 2017 ASAA

Title of Art Piece: Secret Succulent
Category: Ceramics – 2017
Student/Artist’s Name: Paloma Ramirez
School: Homer High School
Grade: 12th
Artist Statement:

When I was given a unity project by my ceramics teacher, I immediately thought of a group of succulents- something that I have loved forever. I was hoping to make a tightly packed pot of plants that could come apart. I worked with pinch pots, coil pots, and slabs in order to achieve this goal. The secret compartment that is in the planter gives the owner a place to store objects under a facade of a solid art piece; akin to a safe behind a painting. The ceramic piece was fun to make and I am happy with how it turned out.
