www.ramart.org Using steel and bronze, as well as organic materials such as beeswax, bone, hair and mother-of-pearl, Kim Cridler creates vessel forms that connect her interests in history, craft, ornament and function with an investigation of material and metaphor. Comprised of several sculptural works utilizing patterns and motifs based on the environment around Cridler's current residence, My Wisconsin Home also references "open storage areas in museums that facilitate the formal and cultural study of objects and their histories."
