Description

Molly Hatch’s, Worcester Imari, is composed of 99 hand-painted Italian Earthenware plates with underglaze, glaze, and 11 karat gold details. The intricate pattern and colors that have been hand-painted on the plates form Hatch’s contemporary interpretation of a pair of 18th century painted vases with lids, currently on display at the Atlanta Frances and Emory Cocke Collection in the High Museum of Art.

This is the first work in the series of an edition of four.

Hatch’s work has been widely collected, commissioned, and exhibited at art fairs nationally and internationally. In 2013, Hatch had a solo museum exhibition at the Philadelphia Art Alliance and was included in New Blue and White, a contemporary decorative arts exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. In the spring of 2014 Physic Garden, a monumental 456-plate painting, was installed at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, and in 2015 Chronicle Books of San Francisco published a book of her work. In 2016, the Clayarch Gimhae Museum in Korea exhibited a selection of wall installations by the artist. As the artist works on a commission basis, custom works can be created through Todd Merrill Studio.
