Erebos I is a collaboration by husband and wife Evamarie Pappas and Gary Oglander. Ceramicist and sculptor Pappas creates the form which Oglander paints. These sculptural vessels are reminiscent of classical Greek forms with a slight twist. Pappas was influenced by her Greek heritage and travels and the artist Giacometti. Oglander's paint and etched symbols create a contemporary sensibility that flows from a subliminal place. The etchings are reminiscent of ancient cave paintings. Oglander first paints the sculpture in a multitude of colors. Next, he covers in black paint and etches while the paint is still wet, allowing a bit of the color to show through.
