Moon Face, Well-Behaved Women 2026 is an original framed ceramic art piece by Stoke-on-Trent artist Philip Hardaker, made in his studio in 2026.
The work combines a hand-modelled and glazed ceramic moon face with a sky of flowers crafted from found ceramic shards gathered from the ground in Stoke-on-Trent — a quietly powerful act of reclamation rooted in the Potteries landscape.
Indented into the blue-decorated and glazed ceramic surface are the words:
"Well Behaved Women Rarely Make History Or Are Remembered"
The piece is presented in a reclaimed gold distressed frame with a black painted back, and can be displayed as both a table-top piece and a wall hanging.
