| I am a potter. For me, the magic of creating a volume, defining boundaries using a lump of clay and a potter’s wheel, has never grown old. I think of my work with clay as an opportunity to capture a moment in my life that will endure into the future. My work is inspired by historic forms coupled with imagery drawn from textiles and the flora present in my environment. I enjoy the slow process of making my work. I throw each piece on my potters wheel and decorate using sgraffito and clay slips. I fire each piece with a satin clear glaze, making them practical for daily use. My goal is to create useful, beautiful, objects reminiscent of the past that will endure into the future. |
