Artist’s Statement
I believe serendipity is as
valid an influence as intent.
While working with intent, I
also like to be spontaneous
and let the images from every
day life, myths, and
spirituality guide me.
As an Artist working with
clay, I find that the many
transformations it can go
through are mesmerizing. I
work in both a concept-based
and traditional form of art.
You may find some printmaking
techniques and added
embellishments such as metal
hardware, slip-cast organic
material, and wet clay
installations. I incorporate
these materials to challenge
the viewer and to push the
limits of the pottery
tradition.
Ideas of transformation,
magic, and spirituality
interest me. The
transformation of clay, on the
wheel and off, can embody all
of these themes. I
wheel-throw and hand-build
both functional and
non-functional ceramics,
firing to cone six and some of
my non-functional pieces I
fire using an ancient Japanese
technique called Raku. Using
fire and smoke, I can see what
seems to be a magical
transformation of the piece.
