I'm getting my new pots ready to send off to this exciting exhibit that Ronan Peterson curated at the Green Hill Center for NC Art. Should be a great exhibit and opening. I think a lot of the NC potters are going to the opening reception. Pictured above is my latest carved ewer, and below, an oval carved vase.
By Example: NC Potters and their Mentors
June 29 - August 26, 2012
Opening reception Friday, June 29, 2012 5:30 - 7:30
By Example presents the work of twenty younger NC ceramic artists who use color, texture and imagery in their work and examines the sources of the newer guard of NC clay makers. Guest curator Ronan Kyle Peterson has selected 20 artists who in turn have invited 20 mentors who have impacted their work and careers in a significant way. This exhibit will include both functional and sculptural ceramic works which will introduce viewers to the clay medium through new approaches to surface design, and innovative use of ancient techniques. Themes such as artistic borrowings from other media in contemporary craft and the importance of mentorship will also be explored.
