The clay’s finish gives the pieces a richly tactile surface, with indentations that are both a result of the material and Simone’s own markings. Some portray that of weathered concrete, while some have repetitive rectangular patterns, imposing window-like structures onto the irregular forms of her work. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLidded jars repeat themselves most throughout the collection, with meticulously measured openings that invite user and viewer interaction.

The deep iron and auburn tones of these rusted metal and fabric pieces soften the ruggedness of the finished clay, resulting in works that feel decadent and invaluable; they are pieces to treasure and continually connect with. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout the Artist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSimone Krug-Springsguth was born in 1967 in the former East German city, then named Karl-Marx-Stadt, now Chemnitz.
