Artist Statement
I am inspired to create pottery that fits into daily life with an emphasis equally placed on beauty and practicality. My work evolves as a continuum through repetition of forms that change slowly through time, examination, and use.
In my studio practice, I chase the minute details of a pot; the way the belly of the form holds volume and space, how the handle feels between index and thumb, the emotive quality of the colour.
In reference to my childhood cabin, my work is trimmed by hand giving the appearance of being hand-hewn. The pieces are then fired in an atmospheric kiln which creates a subtle surface that appears worn as if well-loved through years of use.
Confounded by the seemingly simple task of creating functional ceramics, I am challenged to inquisitively search for improvement. With this intention, it is my role as a maker to create thoughtful utilitarian wares that are used as cherished tools to enrich daily life.
