Daisy Fish Car

The faces and objects portrayed in Jeanine Pennell's one-of-a-kind work convey vulnerability and a sense of their own personal history. Each is based on a drawing from Pennell's sketchbook and is fabricated from kiln-fired, stoneware paperclay, then hand-painted in underglaze washes and fired multiple times to create a gritty, illustrative quality.

This work is interactive: the figure can be removed from the car, which has wheels that roll.
