Label Text"Motherhood Secrets” incorporates a metaphorical relationship with personal narrative, connecting with Sudd's recent experience as a new mother. In this series, halved wheel-thrown vessels are filled with ceramic material, fired, and ground and polished; producing a finished surface that resembles a ceramic geode in objects that function as metaphors for Sudd's maternal experience—a metamorphic soup of isolation, insulation, and potentiality.
