Description
Madeline Kaczmarczyk, a ceramics sculptor based in Rockford, Michigan, provided the cover art for the Fall 2021 edition of The Open Journal of Occupational Therapy (OJOT). The wall vase is made from clay, luster glaze and glass beads. Madeline describes the piece as a playful take on shadows and patterns using a deconstructed classic vase form. Madeline has been creating decorative ceramics for over four decades. In recent years, she has found creative ways to adapt the ceramics process so she can continue creating beautiful works of art. For Madeline, ceramics is more than a means to make a living. This meaningful activity brings focus to her life.
