| dc.description.abstract | Dirt records civilization. We build our homes on it, grow our food from it and bury our dead beneath it. It is our domain, our sustainer, our sanctuary. Engaging with this bodily earth reminds us of our presence. To it, we are grounded, connected and mortal. Wheel-thrown, earthenware pottery is the foundation of my work. Gritty, rich, robust terra cotta impresses raw, primitive, necessity. Coarse grog rips and tears through soft clay, leaving a rough, worn surface, suggesting unrefined wild earth. | en_US |
