Justin Novak

Justin Novak's figurative pieces are quite interesting. I find the figures proportions fairly precise, but the message behind his pieces can be quite grotesque. Each piece is a specific metaphor resembling  injury, or self esteem, or other physical harm. His pieces are raku firing which gives them a unique texture and almost a shattering of glass effect, which could also resemble the harm to the body that he expresses as his metaphors.
