In the past decade, the name Molly Hatch has become synonymous with contemporary ceramics.  Hatch’s ceramic installations, inspired by historical decoration, have been exhibited and collected all over the world and garnered her a loyal and fervent following. Saffron is part of an ongoing series of works that explores the relationship between the historic and the contemporary through the deconstruction of traditional tableware patterns. Hatch modernizes the historic surface pattern with her painterly brush strokes on 66 hand-thrown ceramic plates. The work reawakens interest in the historic through 21^st-century aesthetic choices.

As Hatch works on a commission basis, custom works may be requested.
