About The Artwork

This piece is the first from a series called Words Our Armor. This vessel is inspired by a song titled Fallopian Rhapsody by the Lunachicks from 1995. The song is about abortion rights and this vessel was created in reaction to the over turn of Roe V Wade. Hand thrown on the pottery wheel and hand sculpted to create abstract and ambiguous biomorphic female forms. This form was then hand painted with the lyrics from the song, and then Raku fired. The intense fast firing process lends to the cracked surface design of the vase caused by thermal shock. The cracked glaze layered with the passionate lyrics for abortion rights emphasize the balance of fragility and strength, the vitality of survival that is embedded into this body of work. 100% of the proceeds from the sale of this work (not including Saatchi Art commission) will be donated to non-profit Abortion Rights Funding.

Jessamyn Go is a ceramic artist, educator, environmental conservationist and the founder of Femme Sole. Born in New York City and raised on Long Island, she attended New York University and graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Studio Art. Aside from leading a successful small batch production studio Jessamyn is a founding member of the Mastic Beach Conservancy, serves on the board of trustees, and works with the fundraising committee to organize local events to raise funds for their community. Jessamyn began working with ceramics in 2018 when she pivoted away from a 20+ year career in luxury retail management. During the pandemic shutdown of Covid 19 she began selling her ceramic wares through social media and local farmer's markets to raise funds to build her home ceramics studio in Mastic Beach, NY. Slowly gaining local recognition for the Femme Sole signature style, she began to develop a wholesale production for stores, and began to teach ceramics privately to both children and adults out of her home studio. In addition to leading a successful production practice for Femme Sole, Jessamyn began to exhibit her art globally presenting the Femme Sole Signature Collection vases with 1000 Vases in Paris, France during Art Paris in Spring of 2022, and again with 1000 Vases at Super Studio Piu in Milan, Italy in the Summer of 2022. Her most recent body of work is centered on women’s rights issues that exhibited at The Other Art Fair in Brooklyn, NY and with the Perseus Gallery at Red Dot in the Wynwood Art District during Art Basel Miami.
