Simplicity and Serenity.
A collection of ceramic sculptures created to evoke a sense of calm, by Resident Artist Melly Frank.

“Meditation has become a vital practice in my life. It lessens feelings of overwhelm and helps greatly in bringing me back to a sense of focus, balance and calm.

With the knowledge that meditation has helped my mental health immensely, I feel compelled to create work that is inspired by the practice.

The act of hand building with clay for me is also a meditative practice. The tactile process slows my mind allowing it to become intensely focused on the task at hand, leaving no room for intrusive unwelcome thoughts and feelings.

My hope is that when you observe my sculptures, you may stop and take a quiet moment to perhaps experience a sense of calm yourself.”
