Wood firing

An absurd amount of energy goes into firing these kilns. Energy from the….

1. Potters… Whom work together to fire the kiln, grasping the forces of nature, transforming clay into ceramic. One cup holds the energy of a community of potters. Each individual chopped & prepared wood, going on to stoke the kiln for hours at a time, taking numerous shifts. For up to a week someone is always tending to the fire. Thank you to the wonderful people whom I have gotten to fire with.

2. Earth… Which gifts the core elements we get to utilize throughout the entire process. From the clay & water to the wood,

   fire, & air. An art form dating back thousands of years. A sustainable human practice that we get to pursue today.

A skeleton made from clay and returning to ash one day.”

working with clay at a young age, at this time some loved ones in our life died.

We didn’t know how to deal with it, understand it, dead, they’re gone.

So we turned to clay, creating ceramics to symbolize, contemplate, & work through grief.

We fell in love with the process of transforming the formless into form. We felt some strange wave of solace through molding clay, contemplating the cycle of life.

Knowing we will pass into the earth, seize the day, give thanks for life and create.
