RAKHEE KANE

‘

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.
