\"MASKS<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Earthenware clay masks by Conrad,  fired at about 1050 - 1100F. Ball clay & oxides applied as paint while clay is leather-hard, before firing. The coral-like surface of some of the masks is made meticulously & meditatively by the artist  using a  sharp, needle-like tool,  one hole at a time  -  a  million  deaths,  a million  lives.  Masks  of  coral.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
