"MASK"
I have always been intrigued and fascinated by masks. Masks are representational,
and they can transform a person. Interestingly, often when one wears a
mask, s/he has a tendency to become less inhibited, more relaxed, and as
a result the true personality will shine through.
It was about two years ago, I came across a few drawings and
colorings done by my daughter Sienna Mae. These particular drawings, had
images with mask-like quality. This notion inspired me to do a series of
mask sketches. Shortly after, I started introducing and incorporating them
in my clay objects (functional & decorative).

"PeasheCAT"
PeasheCAT is the collaborative clay work of Bahereh Khodadoost-Heath
and her daughter Sienna Mae Heath. They are based on Sienna Mae's cat drawings
which are carefully transferred onto clay, then composed and elaborated
on if necessary. The work of art is then glazed and fired in their family
studio "Ginger Blue Clay Art Studio". The work has a very unique quality,
they are as child-like as they are mature since they are the work of the
free spirited 7 year old Sienna Mae and the 50 year old Bahereh. These
collaborative clay works, which are based on Sienna Mae's drawings of her
cat named Daisy, merge two cultures and two generations. They are sophisticated,
yet very whimsical.
The name "PeasheCAT" is a marriage of two words: Peashe meaning
Kitty in the Persian language, and the English word Cat.
Bahereh and Sienna Mae, who are both Libra's, have started their
PeasheCat joint venture in August of 1996 in Pen Argyl, Pennsylvania.
Sienna Mae has a black cat named Daisy who lives in their studio
with their canary named Hafez, and their love bird named Herana!
