Titled “Bottom Feeders”, this amazing series by Mary O’Malley series depicts cups, teapots, plates, saucers and bowls that appear to have been recovered from the sea-bottom, covered by flora and fauna over the years and wholly consumed by coral, seaweed, crustaceans, and tentacles. However, these remarkable pieces were actually created by O’Malley by hands, the teapots and other dishes are thrown and hand-built porcelain, to which she adds sculpted wildlife coated with red iron oxide. Here are part of the series, and you can discover more on O’Malley’s site.
