Offers by Ferrin Contemporary on behalf Private Collections
These highly-prized pieces are available from private collections. The artworks were made between 1985-1988 by Mara Superior.
Mara Superior is an American visual artist who works in porcelain. Her ceramic high-relief platters and sculptural objects reflect the artistβs passion for art history and the decorative arts, and her painterly motifs range from the pleasures of the domestic to serious political and environmental issues as points of departure to comment on contemporary culture and its relationship to history. Superior has received numerous awards including a National Endowment for the Visual Arts Fellowship, the prestigious GuldaggergΓ₯rd Residency in Denmark, and numerous individual artist grants from the Massachusetts Cultural Council. In 2025, Mara will feature recent and selected masterworks from her archives and private collections in her solo show, Porcelain Love Letters: The Art of Mara Superior at Shelburne Museum (Shelburne, VT).Β ”
