The Cup: Matt Wilt - Edwardsville, IL


Matt Wilt Mug
Cone 10, salt fired, dark stoneware (4 x 4.5 inches)
CUP 208 $40 SOLD

Statement:
In making functional pottery, I try to treat each piece as a condensed sculpture. The formal combinations of line, mass, balance, skin, volume, and proportion allow for an infinite number of conclusions. When working with these variables, my goal is to find an arrangement that has a strong visual presence and emotive impact on the user. Ultimately, whether a pot is being held in someone’s hands or is sitting on a shelf, I would like its presence to be felt.


Matt Wilt Mug
Cone 10, salt fired, dark stoneware (4 x 4.25 inches)
CUP 209 $40


 Each of these cups was fired to cone 10 (2,380 degree Fahrenheit), in a salt kiln. Sodium, in the form of rock salt, is introduced into the kiln at approximately 2,300 degrees and continues for an hour while peak temperature is reached. The sodium vaporizes and creates a glaze on the surface of the dark stoneware clay, and also affects the color of the applied glazes. The salt firing process allows for a measure of unpredictability that is both rewarding and challenging.

The Cup: Tara Wilson - Montana City, MT


Tara Wilson Cup
wood-fired stoneware (3.5 x 3 inches)
CUP 203 $30
 
Statement:
Quiet pots initially speak softly yet reveal complexity in both form and surface through continued investigation and use.  Embodied in my wood fired vessels is the serenity that I experience by surrounding myself on a daily bases with a rich natural environment.


Tara Wilson Cup
wood-fired stoneware (3.5 x 3 inches)
CUP 204 $30

 
The rich surfaces of the vessels represent the natural world.  Nature also inspires form, in some cases quite literally, as river rocks become saucers.  Other pieces speak of this passion more subtly.  Bases reference the landscape, evoking a sense of space and awareness of the land.  Parallels can be drawn between geological processes and the atmospheric firing process.  Pots physically capture and record their firing process similar to the way sedimentary and metamorphic rocks speak of their history.



Tara Wilson Mug
wood-fired stoneware (5 x 4.25 inches)
CUP 205 $35 SOLD
 
Pottery’s inherent relationship to the figure is accentuated in my gestural forms.  The dialog between the forms changes as the pieces are used.  The simple things in life are often the most important.  My pots speak of my passions, while at the same time allowing the user to recognize the important things in their own lives.

The Cup: Shoko Teruyama - Marshall, NC


Shoko Teruyama Cup
coil built, sgraffito decorated, earthenware
(3.25 x 3 inches) CUP 187 $80 SOLD 

Statement:
Growing up in Japan, I remember tradition being part of daily life.  Temples and shrines were everywhere, even inside our home.  I was drawn to these sacred spaces and ceremonial objects because they were decorated with texture and pattern contrasted by areas of calm and stillness.                   

These memories inspire my current work.  I make boxes, intimate bowls, and small plates for precious objects, vases for flower arranging and a variety of serving pieces.  Many of the forms allude to function and would serve food well, but are more comfortable being placed in sacred spaces of the home like the center of a formal dining room table, a hope chest, or a bedside stand. 



Shoko Teruyama Cup
coil built, sgraffito decorated, earthenware
(3 x 3 inches) CUP 188 $80


The making begins with bisque molds, slab construction, and coil building to make thick, heavy forms.  I carve, shave, and sand excess clay away to slowly reveal the final shape.  Puff handles and other elements are added for physical decoration.  White slip is brushed over the red earthenware to create depth and motion.  Then I carve back through the slip exposing the red clay.  Shiny translucent glazes are applied over the decorated areas and opaque matte glazes over the calm areas.

Ornamentation is important to my ideas.  I have created motifs called vine patterns to lead your eye around the work.  Patterns run continuously to create narrow borders or to fill large amounts of space.  They can flow into tight curves just as easily as they can bend around the belly of a form.  The patterns create visual movement representing water, wind, and clouds.



Shoko Teruyama Cup
coil built, sgraffito decorated, earthenware
(3 x 2.25 inches) CUP 189 $80 SOLD

I create characters based on human relations and things I have experienced.  To me it is much easier to draw owls than humans.  I don't want to tell specific stories to people, I want people to create their own.  Sometimes you feel like the weight of a turtle standing on top of you and sometimes you feel like an owl standing on top of the world.  Some of my characters have a dark nature.  I think that is life.  Sometimes dark things happen.  Overall, I want my work to have a sense of hope and a sense of humor because life goes on.

Bio:
Shoko Teruyama grew up in Mishima, Japan.

The Cup: Gertrude Graham Smith - Bakersville, NC


Gertrude Graham Smith Tall Mug
amber, soda fired, porcelain
(6.75 x 4.25 inches) CUP 182 $45

Statement:
Moving softly and responsively, the feel of porcelain clay thrown on a potters’ wheel is celebrated in the vessels I make.  My pots are animated by thoughtful and spontaneous manipulation of their forms, surfaces, and attachments.  Handles sweep up and out from bellies and shoulders.  Jars raised on feet dance in space.  Scale and surfaces appeal to the human hand. In the kiln, flames filled with sodium decorate anticipated edges. 



Gertrude Graham Smith Tall Mug
white and amber, soda fired, porcelain
(7 x 4.75 inches) CUP 183 $45

I’m looking for my vessels to bring joy with their use and presence, to be good companions for daily living.  They truly come alive when they find a home with you.  I’m thinking that when a hand embraces a cup, there’s a distinct possibility that a heart may fill with compassion.

The Cup: Linda Sikora - Alfred Station, MY



Linda Sikora Cup
porcelain, polychrome glaze, wood/oil/salt fired
(3.75 x 5.25 inches) CUP 177 $45



Linda Sikora Cup
porcelain, polychrome glaze, wood/oil/salt fired
(3.75 x 5.25 inches) CUP 178 $45

Statement:
Jars and teapots have been central to my practice for a number of years now.   The teapot, more demanding of specific engineering particular to its function, and the jar, a generous canvas, its criteria of containment more permissive.  These pieces fuel or act as counterpoint to other forms, or subjects under consideration. I am interested in pottery form for its familiarity and congeniality, its ability to disappear into private/personal activities and places.  But this is only one aspect of the work that, through its intelligence of color, form and stance can also excite/awaken attention and thereby reflects back to the viewer their own imagination.  Invisible or visible, or oscillating back and forth between these states, the pots foster both attention and inattention.

The Cup: Jane Shellenbarger - Rochester, NY


Jane Shellenbarger Rabbit-Cup
stoneware, soda fired, post fired (4.75 x 5.5 inches)
CUP 168 $75 SOLD


Statement:
My work focuses on a pottery idiom, incorporating historical references and social issues with domestic objects. I work in both porcelain and black clays, firing with atmospheric kilns.  Often the pieces undergo multiple post firings to achieve a depth of surface.

While function continues to be an essential concern, I am most intrigued with the ability of pots to transcend themselves as objects and convey information. The ability for the work to draw relationships to history and social issues through imagery, content, and form hold my fascination.


Jane Shellenbarger Victrola/Goat-Cup
stoneware, soda fired, post fired (4 x 5.75 inches)
CUP 169 $75 SOLD

The work that currently holds my interest combines the way interact with our environment and the impact it has on animal and plant species, with traditional vessels and their histories. At its best the work becomes both artifact and an object of the contemporary world.  The use of glaze as a painterly ground provides an impetus to interact with imagery that resounds with a reaction to the world in which we all share.

 Pots are intimate by nature. The history of ceramic objects to commemorate and document our sophistication as a culture is rich.  As pots intersect with utility they have the ability to choreograph domestic experience affecting people in a deep and interactive way. There is a need to keep these interactions vital.   The rhythm of making pots is, for me, an endless pursuit to express ideas and define interaction through form.

The Cup: Emily Schroeder Willis - Chicago, IL


Emily Schroeder Willis Cup oxidized porcelain, 2011
(5.5 x 4 inches) CUP 159 $40



Emily Schroeder Willis Cup oxidized porcelain, 2011
(5 x 3.5 inches) CUP 160 $35


Statement:
Elements of touch, intimacy and mark making are extremely important to the work that I make.  I create subtle forms on which I draw imagery that is sensitive to how each pot was touched and formed.  An aspect unique to my work is that every movement and gesture is marked and recorded on the surface of my pots.  I have chosen this rather slow and tedious process of pinching because I believe that pinching pots instead of throwing them on a wheel or building them with slabs creates a different type of intimacy. I see my fingerprints as a sort of brush stroke.  In the way that a painter paints a canvas and creates a certain sensibility in the image, I create an intimacy in my work by the way that my fingers touch the clay.  Human presence and the mark of the hand are important to my work, which steps back to a time where work isn't about production, but the touch of a fingertip.
