Nancy Kubale has enjoyed a long career as an artist, first as a painter and later a costumer. She took up ceramics after moving to North Carolina 30 years ago. “It was all over after that,” she recalls. “I loved it.” Kubale’s figurative clay sculptures have been shown across the country, placed in juried exhibits, and published in books. “I think of my work as metaphorical of universal truths,” she says. With her choir of busts, Kubale doesn’t assign as much meaning. These pieces, she notes, are more affordable and highly collected. Her work is presented at Blue Spiral 1 gallery in Asheville. www.nancykubale.com
