I recently rediscovered an artist who I featured more than two years ago on The Empty Vessel. In 2006 I wrote about Lindsay Ketterer Gates’ pistachio shell covered vessels. I still love them, but I’m also intrigued with her use of rich, saturated color (the pistachio shells do have their limits), pattern and texture in the collection of sculptural vessels shown here. Her work draws you in close, closer, closest. All are part of the vocabulary that she speaks about below. I think Ketterer-Gates gets an ‘A’ in vocabulary.
