Statement | Ceramic Sculpture

I use long ceramic coils to "weave" or "knit" sculptural forms. Coiling allows me to explore the way that time and nature build form. This process connects, both, to ancient ceramic practice and to traditional forms of feminine craft. It, also, allows me to step outside of traditional ceramic practice in order to find form.

The sculptures often begin as vessels, as the vessel is a metaphor for embodiment. Through my sculpture, I try to express my experience of being in a body.
