Fire On artists embrace a throwback palette and retro energy in celebration of the Torpedo Factory Art Center’s 50th anniversary.
Mid-century forms come in statement vases in groovy green and toasty orange earthiness. Artists have experimented with fab splashy abstract patterned dishware ideal for chillin.’ Disco meets boogie woggie in kilnformed glassware as light plays with hip movement resulting in trippy trays, blazin’ bowls and primo plates.
Artists put power in flowers, imprinting organics into art everyone digs including bud vases, tiles, plates, sculptures and original cards and prints.
Free birds are on platters, mugs and inspired hung creations. Or consider taking a walk on the wild side with face jugs, animal-themed art and abstract figural and geometric sculptures.
Our gallery, founded in 1976, is stayin’ alive, so come visit, shop and get some good vibes.
