Victor and Friends: Tea Bowl Project

Victor and Friends also highlights Babu’s influence on generations of artists. More than two dozen former students are contributing tea bowls finished with Babu’s own glazes, which have been in storage since his death in 2019. Former student and local potter Deborah Wald directed the project and donated her time and studio space to help make it possible. She and fellow KCAI alumna Molly Routhieaux Braley reconstituted the huge containers of Babu’s stunning glazes used to complete the bowls.
