Jessie Lazar is the potter of the month for September. Her opening reception and sale will be at the studio on September 11th from 7–9 pm.
Artist's Statement
- I love that pottery is about being centered
- I love that something so amorphic and squishy becomes stone and glass
- I love to walk in the streets covered in clay
- I love that the more I learn about ceramics the more deeply I see of how little I know
- I love wheel #4
- I love the community structure of our studio
- I love that I love to teach
- I love that I learned to draw
- I love the endless conflict I feel between 'functional craft' and the word 'art'
- I love that the history of ceramics is the history of human evolution and civilizations
