Colors deepen, bodies change, and jaws protrude - all for a final act that repeats each year. This ceramic version with its rich greens and shocks of pink and red may be ready for the big hurrah. Good luck! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreated by Benjamin Lambert of BLAM Ceramics who is inspired by what lies beneath the surface of the lakes and streams he frequents with rod and reel in hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Measures 18.25\" x 6 \" x 2.75\"\u003cbr\u003e - Ceramic\u003cbr\u003e - Wire mount on back\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenjamin Lambert was born and raised near the Androscoggin River where he gained an appreciation for environmental stewardship. As an avid fisherman, his love for the outdoors is reflected in his subject matter. While attending Leavitt Area High School in Turner, Maine, Benjamin was taught by fellow ceramic (and Good Supply) artist Jonathan Mess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2008, Benjamin received a B.F.A. with a concentration in ceramics from the University of Southern Maine. In 2010, he worked as a summer staff member at Watershed Center for the Ceramic Arts in Newcastle, Maine. He later received an MFA in Ceramics and Sculpture in 2015 at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenjamin is currently an Assistant Professor of Art at Baldwin Wallace University in Berea, OH where he teaches ceramics and sculpture and exhibits his work nationally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the Artist:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese fish are an exploratory aspect of my artistic practice. The ceramic process of glazing and surface application is often a mystery because of how much glaze materials can transform through the firing process. These fish provide me with a format that lets me play and experiment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe forms are made similarly to an article of clothing. I trace handmade templates on flat sheets of clay and join the edges together to make fish \"blanks\" that I can then alter and apply anatomical, expressive, and imaginative information. The symbols and imagery that are carved into the soft clay are inspired by patterns and colors found on some of my favorite fish as well as patterns and textures found in human-created waste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile it's common for sculptural ceramics to be fired many times to achieve the desired result, I limit myself to one bisque firing and one glaze firing. This limitation minimizes my potential energy footprint and makes me feel less conflicted about making environmentally-inspired works. It also challenges me to problem solve ways to achieve glaze surfaces that are as rich in color and texture as I can muster with fewer trips to the kiln.

This interpretation has rich colors and a playful pixel-like surface detail with soft periwinkle and yellow pastel glaze.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Measures 17\" x 6.5\" x 3.5\"\u003cbr\u003e - Ceramic\u003cbr\u003e - Wire mount on back\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenjamin Lambert was born and raised near the Androscoggin River where he gained an appreciation for environmental stewardship. As an avid fisherman, his love for the outdoors is reflected in his subject matter. While attending Leavitt Area High School in Turner, Maine, Benjamin was taught by fellow ceramic (and Good Supply) artist Jonathan Mess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2008, Benjamin received a B.F.A. with a concentration in ceramics from the University of Southern Maine. In 2010, he worked as a summer staff member at Watershed Center for the Ceramic Arts in Newcastle, Maine. He later received an MFA in Ceramics and Sculpture in 2015 at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenjamin is currently an Assistant Professor of Art at Baldwin Wallace University in Berea, OH where he teaches ceramics and sculpture and exhibits his work nationally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the Artist:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese fish are an exploratory aspect of my artistic practice. The ceramic process of glazing and surface application is often a mystery because of how much glaze materials can transform through the firing process. These fish provide me with a format that lets me play and experiment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe forms are made similarly to an article of clothing. I trace handmade templates on flat sheets of clay and join the edges together to make fish \"blanks\" that I can then alter and apply anatomical, expressive, and imaginative information. The symbols and imagery that are carved into the soft clay are inspired by patterns and colors found on some of my favorite fish as well as patterns and textures found in human-created waste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile it's common for sculptural ceramics to be fired many times to achieve the desired result, I limit myself to one bisque firing and one glaze firing. This limitation minimizes my potential energy footprint and makes me feel less conflicted about making environmentally-inspired works. It also challenges me to problem solve ways to achieve glaze surfaces that are as rich in color and texture as I can muster with fewer trips to the kiln.

Bright orange and green glaze show off the detailed curved form and ominous display of teeth. This unique ceramic fish sculpture is created by Benjamin Lambert of BLAM Ceramics who is inspired by what lies beneath the surface of the lakes and streams he frequents with rod and reel in hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Measures 10\" x 8.5\" \u003cbr\u003e - Ceramic\u003cbr\u003e - Wire mount on back\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenjamin Lambert was born and raised near the Androscoggin River where he gained an appreciation for environmental stewardship. As an avid fisherman, his love for the outdoors is reflected in his subject matter. While attending Leavitt Area High School in Turner, Maine, Benjamin was taught by fellow ceramic (and Good Supply) artist Jonathan Mess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2008, Benjamin received a B.F.A. with a concentration in ceramics from the University of Southern Maine. In 2010, he worked as a summer staff member at Watershed Center for the Ceramic Arts in Newcastle, Maine. He later received an MFA in Ceramics and Sculpture in 2015 at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenjamin is currently an Assistant Professor of Art at Baldwin Wallace University in Berea, OH where he teaches ceramics and sculpture and exhibits his work nationally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the Artist:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese fish are an exploratory aspect of my artistic practice. The ceramic process of glazing and surface application is often a mystery because of how much glaze materials can transform through the firing process. These fish provide me with a format that lets me play and experiment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe forms are made similarly to an article of clothing. I trace handmade templates on flat sheets of clay and join the edges together to make fish \"blanks\" that I can then alter and apply anatomical, expressive, and imaginative information. The symbols and imagery that are carved into the soft clay are inspired by patterns and colors found on some of my favorite fish as well as patterns and textures found in human-created waste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile it's common for sculptural ceramics to be fired many times to achieve the desired result, I limit myself to one bisque firing and one glaze firing. This limitation minimizes my potential energy footprint and makes me feel less conflicted about making environmentally-inspired works. It also challenges me to problem solve ways to achieve glaze surfaces that are as rich in color and texture as I can muster with fewer trips to the kiln.
