Seated with her feet on the ground but catching herself as if preparing to rise, the woman in Touching Ground by Georgia ceramic artist Debra Fritts adds a three-dimensional form to a corner previously dominated by paintings of a soaring eagle and Coach Erk Russell. Touching Ground is the latest work that Betty Foy Sanders has given to Georgia Southern University for the Georgia Artists Collection, which she inaugurated in 1967. Her daughter Betty Foy Botts presented the sculpture Saturday at the GSU Center for Art and Theatre.
