Pottery is an integral part of human existence around the world. As
long as 2,000 years ago pots were being made in Alberta. The province’s
current clay scene features a rich array of classic, innovative and
experimental work by studio potters, as well as prominent clay projects
and educational programs.
This exhibition is looking for Alberta ceramic artists who create
tableware or ceramic pieces related to cooking, dining and celebration.
Work selected for this exhibition may include:
Potworks will run in the Alberta Craft Council’s Feature Gallery from October 5 – December 24, 2013.

My objective is to encourage appreciation for the interconnectivity I
see in beings and life processes. I am very interested in ethical
reasoning and perplexed by human activity, or inactivity, and how this
correlates to the rest of life. When creating work, I allow my pieces to
encompass my own emotions. I hope to spark feelings of compassion,
sympathy, and joy and to trigger a feeling of intimacy. I have a hopeful
attitude about the future and I want to share this with my audience.
As
a ceramic artist, I am influenced by the natural world. I appreciate
the material’s transformation from water, air and fire, as it reminds me
of my own connection with the earth. My childhood memories of working
with clay are still influential today as I maintain a playful attitude
with my work, both physically and conceptually.
