Geometria Brick Lamps

By Jim Schatz

2 stoneware tiles in a wood frame.

Geometria Tile Mural 2 joins two large stoneware tiles into a single relief. Concentric lines are drawn through every shape — a spiral, arches, quarter arcs and a ringed disc — so the surface moves like a contour map across the seam.

Glazes run from silver-grey and bronze through ochre, olive and rust to black, set against a dark brown ground. Each tile is finished by hand at the Detroit studio.

15 stoneware tiles in a wood frame.

Geometria Tile Mural 1 sets fifteen tiles edge to edge in a grid of three rows, each carrying its own Geometria composition — half circles, quarter arcs, rings and split discs. Shapes cross from one tile into the next, so the piece reads at once as a single field and as fifteen separate studies.

Glossy glazes run from burgundy, blush and cream through ochre, olive and rust to black, set against a warm brown ground. Each tile is finished by hand at the Detroit studio.

Slab-built white stoneware, finished by hand in layered glaze. Each bowl reduces form to essentials: a circle, a half-moon, a split disc, held inside a field of color. The work sits between serving ware and still life.

Each piece is titled by the glaze recipe that produced its surface, a record of how the work was made. One of a kind, 12 inches in diameter.
