Exhibition on view through December 17, 2021
The Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present a group exhibition curated by Anjuli Wright. A fundamental of ceramics, coil building is used by beginning artists, experienced ceramicists, and all creators in between. This technique, though universal, is a direct reflection of the human hands behind it and consequently intensely unique to each maker. In her curatorial debut, Anjuli invited eleven artists to contribute a coil pot—however each artist personally defined it. The variety of answers to this prompt shows the versatility of the coil pot and the ingenuity of its makers.
