'Freedom' Clay Sculpture by The Brick Thief.View In-Store: This item is on display at our No.9 Albemarle Street - Mayfair store.The Brick ThiefMary Jones' (AKA The Brick Thief) main interest is human emotions and how they are translated in her subjects' faces. The artist has conversations with people, usually about their memories.“Often people like to share stories from their childhood revealing a wide variety of emotions. My chief intention is to find different ways to convey these emotions, communicating them through my ceramic practice, consequently giving each piece a ‘Presence’."The Brick Thief achieves this by applying coloured slips, oxides and glazes onto the clay form. She also embeds broken shards of crockery into her work, regularly using recycled china which often represent early memories, triggering emotions which are embedded in our personalities."As I explore and develop exciting relationships between colour, texture, drawing and form, I endeavour to capture the essence of who we are, revealing our internal worlds."The Brick Thief's work is sculptural, figurative, painterly and expressive.View all Sculptures & Mixed Media Artwork
