A vase meant to look wet forever, as if it had just been plucked from the sea. Shells and hand-sculpted flowers are set into the clay and sealed under resin. The collection came out of two things Mirisola kept looking at, ancient grottos decorated with shells and Dutch still lifes overflowing with flowers and butterflies.

Michele Mirisola is a Brooklyn painter and sculptor and the artist behind Chell Fish. She takes Baroque and Rococo craft and remakes it in epoxy clay and resin, the kind of objects you'd see in a painting of a grand interior, except you can pick them up and use them. An artist residency in Lesa, Italy, keeps pulling her back to the region's frescoes, statues, and wrought iron fences.
