I really just want my work to bring a smile to people. I started doing the organs and muscles due to my lack of knowledge of my own insides and keen interest in learning more after finding out I had only one kidney and a big cyst and not really knowing what either looked like. The little characters are really just for fun, often revealing my current relationship with my husband and 2 dogs.
Neufeld, from Osler Saskatchewan, is ex military and a former firefighter. He works with concepts of masculine identity, currently in the form of ceramic transformations of engines and transmissions.
Taking a typically male pre-occupation with muscle cars, he replicates these components in ceramic. Finished like fine china, these sculptures take a grease monkey’s love of car parts and transform them into something precious. Placed on teacarts or chaises longue, these are made the object of attention the equivalent of a prized tea service or reclining nude.
