An announcement notes, "Brickell’s work, largely made of clay, is often composed of
landscapes of objects. The markings take a journey around and sometimes
through the vessels. Brickell compares this experience to that of
experiencing a large landscape vista. 'Although the pots I create Image may be NSFW.

are intimate in scale, they borrow form the vastness of the landscape,' she said. These landscapes may reference the pastoral, the urban or the
personal. 'These quickly rendered ceramic forms are visual
representations of a memory of an object, rather than the actual object
itself; therefore, allowing the ambiguous forms to exist in a murky
space somewhere between the familiar and unfamiliar.' "
It adds, "Actively exhibiting both nationally and internationally, Brickell’s work can be found in Yingge Ceramics Museum, Taiwan, and the San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts, Texas. She has received numerous awards, among them a 2009 residency at Watershed Center for Ceramic Arts, Maine; a silver prize at the Taiwan Ceramics Biennale; and artist-in-residence, award 1, at the International Ceramic Research Center in Denmark."
