I have been working on a project called the Narragansett Series. The work visualizes the New England region in terms of some of the  sea life live in the area.  I received a National Science Foundation grant 3 years ago to make work that visualizes how global warming may influence the aquatic sea life found in the bay and surrounding ocean. 
The pieces range in size from 7” x 7” to 16" x 16" and are a shallow sculptural relief. The materials are glazed red earthenware.
