Like a Valentine: The Art of Jeffry Mitchell

Seattle ceramics hero Jeffry Mitchell uses elemental, simple earthenware to express complicated ideas about the intersection of love, sex, death and the human travails in between. Culled from work Mitchell created over the last 25 years, this collection reveals how his forms pulsate with an over-the-top exuberance and often use childlike imagery to delve into issues involving gender, politics and religion.
