โฆ Synopsis
has been creating glazed ceramic figures for 20 years, constructing them without internal support at a rate of 6-8" inches a day. "I use 16,000lbs of clay a year. I build pieces up from the base and work on several at the same time." He has his own glaze formula and applies silicon carbide to increase the holes and fissures. A propaneheated kiln takes three weeks to fill and fires at 2,100 o C, 100 o lower than porcelain.
Chatterly's 'Purple Seer' (a crater glazed ceramic displayed at Longstreth Goldberg Gallery in Naples, Florida) portrays an art critic: a mummy-style figure impressed all over with sculptured eyes.
