Summary:Discusses the work of the Argentinian ceramist and teacher Alejandra Jones, focusing on her egg-shaped ceramic sculptures. The author notes Jones's participation in exhibitions worldwide, including the 52nd Concorso Internazionale della Ceramica d Arte Contemporanea in Faenza, Italy (May 2002), and states that she published the first book on raku in Spanish in 1999. She argues that the egg-shaped forms which recur in Jones's raku work from 1994 are symbolic of life and vitality, highlights her pieces Un Camino (1999; illus.), Ni Blanca, ni Negra, ni Gris (2000; illus.), Un Corto Camino (2000; illus.) and Camino Abierto (2000; illus.), and states that many of Jones's works are displayed as murals or open-air sculptures.
