‘ RAKHEEKANE
Jar, 2014, 60 cm tall x 45cm dia.
Rakhee Kane’s effortless strokes decorating the
canvas of her forms reveal her extensive travels
& deep studies of the pottery traditions of India.
Her forms are bold, humble & strong while her
techniques are borrowed from her training with
master potters from her various associations
over last 20 years of working with clay.
Rakhee is inspired by the spontaneity & sense of
detatchment seen in traditional potters, tribal
dwellings, household pottery & storage jars that
are decorated extensively by women in India; big
platters, bold rims & decorations, reveal the ease
with which she imbibes this sense of beauty in
daily life into her work that stands out amongst
contemporary studio potters.
Her work integrates her experiences of several
years of diverse, intense observations, absorbing
what comes along in the journey of an artist.
