mud angel

/məd ˈeɪn.dʒəl/ noun

1.

The dirt-covered counterpart to a snow angel; the ecstatic evidence of someone throwing themselves fully into earth, mess, play, and chaos—often resulting in stained clothes, scraped knees, and parental disapproval. “We came home covered in clay and grass like little mud angels.”

2.

A ceramics and lifestyle practice concerned with tactility, ritual, and the aesthetics of imperfection within an increasingly extractive and disposable world. “Mud Angel makes pieces for people trying to stay alive and strange in a world obsessed with profit and efficiency.”

3.

An hommage to the Angeli del Fango ("Mud Angels") of Florence—a collection of global volunteers who rescued books, artworks, and cultural artifacts after catastrophic flooding in 1966. "Mud Angel invokes not only earth and disorder, but the sacred act of rescuing meaning from ruin."
