Things find their way to the garden: a terracotta Things find their way to the garden: a terracotta bird bath c.early 1980s, abstract expressionist play on notion of ambulatory objects. Inherited from my mother's patio, it lost a bit off a leg when a magpie had an exhuberant bath. Don't like using glue so a rock does the balance trick. A bit stained, call it patina, from feathers and such but the water is refreshed often. #gardenterracotta #birdbath #thingsfindtheirwaytothegarden #ambulatoryobject #patina #studiopottery #contemporaryceramics @sharawadgi_hall #sculpturalvessel
