Help support Damien Jones & Fertilitree

Bio:
I’ve
spent 22 years exploring the possibilities of Clay.  For the first 15
of those I was employed as a manufacturing engineer/industrial designer,
but left that career to pursue art, and since 2006 have been a
full-time artist.  In that time I’ve created and installed dozens of
monumental sculptures and water features for private clients, as well as
several public art pieces.  My work is represented by galleries in
Santa Fe, Laguna Beach, San Francisco, Scottsdale, and Palm Springs.

Project & Goal:
-To place my 15-foot Fertilitree sculpture in front of AMOCA
(American Museum of Ceramic Art) in Pomona, CA.
-Pomona is the Roman Goddess of fertilitee.
-Fertilitree is a project inspired by the goddess Pomona.
-Raise $30,000 to help fund this project.

Upcoming Show
Next Show:
Michael Kline

Michael
Kline has recently participated in many of AKAR’s group exhibitions.
This week he has his own show where we see even more of his wood fired,
salt glazed work. The flora on Michael’s utilitarian pottery is inspired
by the mountains of North Carolina. In his own words, “Strong pottery
form and patterns that evoke the complexity of this natural environment
continue to guide my interests in this current body of work”.


Next New Work:
Doug Navarra

New
Yorker, Doug Navarra, has participated in our Yunomi Invitational since
2011. This month is the first that we’re showcasing a variety of his
utilitarian work. Doug’s pots are focused on what he considers “a living
tradition”. He wants his work to have a sense of timlessness as well as
a feeling of present time. Doug wants his pots to express themselves
through the balance of glaze and form, and not to be overpowered by
special effects.

Shows opens this Friday, January 25th, at 9:30 AM in the Iowa City gallery and online at 10:00 AM CST.
