LAURA ZINDEL CERAMICS FEATURED ON COOL HUNTING
From Cool Hunting.com:
Drawn with careful, scientific precision, Laura Zindel's insect imagery adds a creepy Victorian-era touch to her expertly-crafted ceramics. The highly detailed, all-black renderings of spiders on dinner plates and scarab beetle on saucers show her gifts for illustration and well-made tableware alike.
Incorporating an array of animals and plants, Luna moths, bees, tarantulas, dragonflies, ladybugs and birds all get her painstakingly loving treatment. Zindel's taste for symmetry also lends refined complexity; on a large pasta bowl adorned with snakes, their mirrored curving bodies create a gorgeously ornate pattern.
Like the Harvard Museum of Natural History's collection of biologically exacting glass flower specimens, made with breathtaking detail, Zindel's work makes the audience rethink both the subject and material.
