through photography. but of course, the tile work monuments of isfahan presented a problem because photography is in black and white, and their patterns are based on colour. so it was the idea to get paintings made of the tile work in isfahan. this exhibition has given us the opportunity to show some of these larger paintings for the first time in a very long time where you have three of the samples of the interior domes of isfahan have been raised on huge mounts they are only triangular shapes, because the design was repeated around the dome. and so, in order to communicate it, you just needed one thin slice of it which lets you see the relationship between the triangles and a complete dome.

Set back off Route 313 in Doylestown, the Moravian Pottery and Tile Works is both a famous landmark and a leaky old building in need of repair.
Ceramic artist Katia McGuirk got what she wanted Wednesday when the Bucks County commissioners authorized a license for her nonprofit to run the building s operations for the next 30 years.
As a former employee there, McGuirk knows well what she is undertaking.
Like a homebuyer who can see past an old house s cracks and creaks to envision the beautiful home it once was and could be again, McGuirk wants to restore the old tile works both physically and reputation wise, as she brings the tile-making process undertaken there into the 21st century while retaining its close association with the Arts & Crafts Movement its tiles helped promote 100 years ago.
