William Daley
Covered Dish, 1976
Material: Stoneware
Burlington and Jersey clays, slab-built over forms
Daley worked in stoneware using slabs and press molding to hand-build sculptural vessels such as this one. He left the work unglazed in an effort to emphasize the angularity of each piece. He burnished the surfaces to enhance the variations in the clay. He worked out the construction by making complex drawings for each architecturally detailed sculptural piece.
Incised signature and date to underside: “W. Daley Nov. 1976”
