What you need to know about a
charming artwork:
1. An exceptionally powerful sculptor, Brie Ruais uses her own
body—both its appendages and its weight—as a blunt tool to strenuously manipulate masses of clay into visceral sculptures that she paints and fires.

2. Over the past year, the artist has become as hot a commodity as the clay in her kiln, building on a gradual chain of successes—a booth at the ADAA fair, a place in the acclaimed “Come Together: Surviving Sandy Year 1” show—to emerge as a darling of collectors.

3. Called “Affirmation Pots,” these unique pieces consist of useless vessels, misshapen and with gaping holes, that the artist emblazons with a uplifting message of inspiration: "Bet you can."
