Lynn Fischer-Carlson

‘Processor #5’, 1995

ceramic, steel, and wax

Collection of Rockford Art Museum

1996 Jessica Holt Purchase Award

Lynn Fischer-Carlson’s ceramic “processors” are characterized by the use of bone-like structures combined with ambiguous organs. They are fantastic integrations of visceral biomorphic obscurities that swell, twist, ungulate, grow, and decay, and represent the bits and pieces of life that are normally kept within oneself. These biomorphic forms are intended to confront emotions, stimulate imagination, exploit human functions and solicit sexual innuendos.
