" Belly Of The Beast "
Wood Fired Pottery & Sculpture
March 1 - April 3, 2023
Atmospheric wood firing is an ancient firing technique which utilizes wood as the sole fuel source inside a brick and mortar kiln.
|
“The large kilns I fire go for an eight day period being consistently stoked by a crew of potters. Within this time someone is always at the kiln tossing wood in the beast. Temperatures rise to a soaring 2300 degrees. After an eight day cooling period we unload the earthy wares out of the belly of the beast. These works are shared amongst communities to be enjoyed."
