Some new work that will be included in @aboveboar Some new work that will be included in @aboveboardceramics - Opening March 17
In late 2020 I changed all of my materials and fir In late 2020 I changed all of my materials and firing technology. I went from cone 4 electric (and work that was fired 3 times) to cone 8 soda firing. For ceramic artists, developing work with new materials is a huge transition. One that can have thrilling and deeply challenging moments. For me, this material transition was also accompanied by a shift in my vision. COVID has transformed daily life in somewhat predictable, but sometimes exceptional, ways. Growing food has always been something I loved... but during the pandemic my garden went from being a joy filled hobby, to something closer to a lifeline. A stabilizer. So, I started 2021 by completing a new series of work based on my garden. These are just a few from a series of hand built ‘companion plant’ plates. The cut plate silhouette is the profile of a leafy green (outlined from plants grown in my 2020 garden) and the silhouette image on the plate is a plant that makes a good next door neighbor to it in the garden bed … a practice in sustainable agriculture. These still need more development work but they are headed somewhere new for me. Now... I’m off to start a tray of seeds. 🌱💚🌱
I’m not really sure what to say about this yet, I’m not really sure what to say about this yet, so I’m just gonna leave it here. Also, it’s gray and rainy today. 💙🌧

New works in progress. I’ve always been fascinat New works in progress. I’ve always been fascinated with the aesthetics of food and farmland, and with this series of pots, vessel form has started to merge with vegetable silhouette. While these are, in fact, profiles of cabbages translated from drawings to plates... to me they are less about exact reproduction and more of an exercise in attention. Things I’ve been thinking about as I sit and carve these rims: how human scale dictates how I perceive farmland and also gardens. Tools and their relationship to our bodies. How all healthy landscape design forces you to consider light, scale, and form. How regenerative farming requires the constant consideration of multiple timescales in a very lovely way. Do all of these thoughts come out in the pots? No. Not at the moment. For me, how much I ask my pots to hold can be a philosophical question as much as a functional one. For now, the tall feet and wild rims are an exercise in casting shadows... and maybe challenging functionality and food presentation a bit. I’m enjoying the slow down of hand building again... and delighting in the new merging of digital drawing in my process - even as I fight the internalized anxiety created by decreased production. Anyone else get this? Many thanks to @jyhoward for the nudge to start using procreate.

Firing pots in a soda kiln again, with its varied Firing pots in a soda kiln again, with its varied atmosphere, means that some interesting color shifts appear in the clay. Sometimes the change is wild and unexpected, like the orange pot I posted a last week... sometimes it’s more subtle. I placed this plate on a wood backdrop to show off the undertones of warm brown that appeared on some of the pots from this last firing. Work from this firing will be available for purchase at 11:00 am on the Cousins in Clay website! Link in bio. @cousinsinclay

For me, starting to fire in a gas kiln again means For me, starting to fire in a gas kiln again means embracing the quirky pots of the firing. This small side plate was sitting right by the exit flue and it’s placement in the kiln is what gave it this gentle orange blush. It was the only one in the firing like it. While this color wasn’t my intention, its kind of fun to have the voice of the kiln keeping me on my toes again. Ps. This was the pot I decorated during my very fun studio visit with @harvardceramics earlier this summer!

I grew black beans for the first time this year. The plants are currently hanging upside down in my kiln shed drying out, but I couldn’t resist taking a peek. 🖤 #blackbeans
