Repeat After Me is a handmade figurative ceramic vase that carries a quiet narrative in painted form. A procession of women—similar yet subtly distinct—wraps the vessel in soft layers of underglaze, their bodies forming a tender rhythm around the curve. Most rest their heads on the shoulder of the figure beside them, creating a chain of closeness and shared support.
Then, one figure breaks the pattern—head lifted, unlinked. What began as repetition transforms into interruption. That single shift opens the piece into something deeper: a meditation on belonging and autonomy, comfort and resistance, unity and individuation. It invites you to decide what the pause means.
Elegant and art deco in spirit, this vase is designed to stand confidently on its own as functional art, or to be styled with fresh stems or dried branches. Artisan crafted in Los Angeles, each piece carries the nuance of the hand—subtle variations are part of its character.
