I am a ceramic artist based in Columbia, South Carolina. My work emphasizes texture and glaze.
Artist Statement
My work in ceramics focuses on functional items. For me, these pieces are more than a vase, bowl or mug. Handcrafted work is a reminder of the history of objects and the diversity and creative potential in the world.
As the country approaches its 250th anniversary under the current administration, the need for reflection on our history and future is urgent. I use ceramic form, color, and texture to call out the precarious state of our democracy and prompt reflection on preservation and repair.
