I just received an email from the Red Lodge Clay Center announcing that the artist Janis Mars Wunderlich is their featured artist this month. Check out their website for more images of her new work. I’ve been fascinated by her work for a while now, the playful nature coupled with harsh realities of childrearing. I think her work is rich with narrative and detail, speaking very personally regarding universal ideas.
And on a more local note (well local to me at least!) the Hand Wave Gallery will be hosting an exhibition of work by Jody Greenman-Barber whose work is filled with an energy and vitality expressing the inherent nature of the material pushed and pulled to its limits. I love her work and how it animates the clay into pots which virtually dance on the spot.
The Hand Wave Gallery also shows the work of Anita Rocamora whose work more recently has moved away from more organic/vessel based work towards intriguing figurative pieces whose surfaces are rich in layering of color and texture.
