“A retrospective of Mara Superior’s acclaimed porcelain art. Originally trained as a painter, Superior found her true medium in porcelain, combining intricate painted imagery with sculptural forms to explore themes of art history, environmentalism, and domesticity. Her pieces, often described as love letters to the world, invite audiences to engage with their timeless beauty and layered meanings.” — The Shelburne Museum, Museum News, April 11, 2025
