Caption
This serving platter features a silhouette of the state of Maryland in ceramic produced using Korean and Japanese techniques. The artist, Mea Rhee of Good Elephant Pottery, is Korean American and describes the platter as a “love note to my home state”. She specializes in hakeme (also known as gye-yal in Korean) slip work, a traditional ceramic technique of brushing white slip onto clay and produces buncheong-style (a form of Korean stoneware that dates to the Joseon dynasty) rustic stoneware that has been traditionally used in Korea as table and tea ware.
