ARTIST STATEMENT
I was drawn to working in the medium of clay because of its ability to be both sculptural and functional simultaneously. Making something that I can use in my daily life, such as a lamp or a mug, but that can also serve as a work of art—something to be enjoyed for its form—was very exciting to me. I think about this duality whenever I make something that is functional—that its presence should also provide pleasure. What a thrill getting to be a part of those little rituals that make up every day.
