Viennese-born Martina Funder (born 1953) creates expressive clay sculptures, each a textured, surprising work that both imitates the earth’s organic forms and invites us to perceive them afresh. With scholarly essays, The World Composed in Clay is an accessible introduction to the ceramicist’s work.
