Working with clay, fabric and paper, sculptor Heather Allen Hietala evokes the idea of journey through time: https://oenogallery.com/artists/heath...

New work by Heather Allen Hietala is currently featured at Oeno Gallery. The artist's clay pieces are hand built, carved, inscribed and glazed. The ‘boat and paddle’ are metaphors for change and the words inscribed within the vessels represent memories, collective and personal.

Metaphor and symbol in her mixed media work offer a narrative of journey and change. The artist creates uniquely beautiful pieces inspired by her love of nature and life’s journey. The series of canoe-shaped clay vessels in natural tones of red, gray and brown are designed to be held.

“So many things in life get broken, and we have all been through something. Ideally, we go through a metamorphosis and become beautiful again: maybe more beautiful because of the cracks.” - Heather Allen Hietala
