\"In<\/p>\n

Simultaneously recalling elements of fungi, coral, and botanicals, Megan Bogonovich<\/a>\u2019s vibrant sculptures poke at the boundary between nature and the artificial, the unique and the manufactured. The artist’s uncanny botanical ceramics<\/a> are created using a series of bespoke plaster molds, embellished with intricate details that resemble blossoms or mushroom caps. Duplicated shapes are disguised with a range of glazes, textures, and embellishments that resist pure repetition yet hint at a sense of the inorganic.<\/p>\n

A collection of new sculptures by Bogonovich go on view this week in the artist’s solo exhibition presented by JLG Projects at Jane Lombard Gallery<\/a> in New York City. Fertile Ground <\/em>opens on November 7 and continues through December 13. Explore more on the artist’s website<\/a> and Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n
