SUMMARY:A Form of Reverence
DESCRIPTION:A Form of Reverence\n\nPaul S. Briggs\, Monica Cook\, CrossLypka\,\nStephen De Staebler\, Ruth Duckworth\, Anders Hamilton\,\nKentaro Kawabata\, Kuniko Kinoto\, Anna Mayer\nDerek Weisberg (curator)\nOpening Reception | Thursday\, May 7\, 2026 | 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view May 7 – June 20\, 2026 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery at Greenwich House Pottery is pleased to present A Form of Reverence curated by Derek Weisberg. The nine artists featured in this exhibition use the alchemic nature of clay to embody “reverence” in physical form. With modern pressures to prioritize information over wisdom and convenience above all else\, many of us seldom consider the magnitude of existence or our role within it. We have lost our sense of awe at being part of an immense\, inextricably connected universe that teems with mystery. The work in this exhibition gives form to the reverence we forget to seek\, but can always find\, in the grace\, the beauty\, the vastness of creation. \n  \nClay is uniquely well suited to convey reverence in physical form because of its ability to act as a conduit for the material and the spiritual to converge. Working with clay requires an artist to focus deeply on the physical world and treat the volatile elements of earth\, air\, water\, and fire as collaborators to be respected\, not forces to be dominated. If an artist ignores these forces\, clay will slump\, crack\, or explode\, but artwork made in harmony with these forces comes alive through the artist’s synergy with the physical world. The sculptures in this exhibition are born from that synergy and help us move past shallow perception to see and revere the eternal in the ordinary. \n  \nEach artist uses this synergy to access the feeling of reverence from a unique perspective. De Staebler grounds the spiritual in the weight and vulnerability of flesh by reducing the human body to a foot and torso\, sites of humility and prayer. Kawabata\, Hamilton\, Briggs\, and Cook use nature as a visual language. Seeds\, saplings\, leaves\, and nature’s abundance serve as metaphors for generative power and the sacred unfolding of life itself.  Kuniko\, Duckworth\, Crosslypka\, and Mayer use abstraction to trace the edges of what lies beyond our knowledge\, giving form to the ephemerality of awe. The work in this exhibition does not seek to define reverence\, but to approach it. Each sculpture is an invitation to pursue the mystery of existence for ourselves\, to seek the point where shape emerges from darkness and meaning hovers just beyond grasp. \nThank you to our collaborators Salon 94\, Bureau\, ATLA\, and Nonaka Hill. \n  \nGallery images below: Alan Wiener\, courtesy Greenwich House Pottery 2026.

SUMMARY:Figurative Slab Building with Jinsik Yoo
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, June 6\n10:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.\n\nWe’re thrilled to welcome Jinsik Yoo back to Greenwich House Pottery for a full-day demonstration exploring the expressive possibilities of abstracted figurative sculpture. Working with slabs\, Jinsik will guide participants through his process of creating human figures—from the first sketch to the final form. \nThe day begins with an artist talk\, offering a window into Jinsik’s practice and the ideas that drive his sculpture. From there\, he’ll demonstrate the figure sketching and collage drawing exercises at the heart of his process: a way of thinking through form on paper before ever touching clay. \n\n\nThe bulk of the workshop focuses on the hands-on work of building with slabs. Jinsik will demonstrate several structural approaches—showing how he constructs\, edits\, and refines form using the collage drawings as a guide. Expect an honest look at the technical decisions that go into abstracted figurative work: how to build something that holds together structurally while staying alive as a sculpture. \nToward the end of the day\, Jinsik will share finished works alongside practical insights into glazing\, surface treatment\, and the lessons learned from his studio practice—the kind of hard-won knowledge that doesn’t always make it into a technique book. \nTuition for this workshop is $150. Current students receive $30 off\, contact registration office prior to registration. \n\n\nJinsik Yoo (He/Him) is a sculptor and painter from Daejeon\, South Korea. He primarily works with ceramics to create figures that abstract the human form\, exploring desire\, queer relationships\, and the risks and rewards of otherness. He received his BFA in graphic design from Konkuk University in Seoul. After working as a graphic designer for three years\, he returned to Konkuk to complete graduate studies in ceramics. In 2017\, Yoo moved to the United States to pursue his MFA at the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University\, where he completed a year-long residency at the Wellsville Creative Arts Center. In 2020\, he then moved to Brooklyn\, New York\, to work as a fabrication assistant for Simone Leigh. In 2021\, Yoo was recognized as an NCECA Emerging Artist. Following his residency at The Clay Studio in Philadelphia\, Yoo taught at New York University in New York and the University of Georgia in Athens\, GA\, while continuing his artistic practice. In January 2024\, Yoo held his first solo exhibition in New York at Greenwich House Pottery’s Jane Hartsook Gallery. He presented his first solo show in South Korea in July 2025 at Seoul’s DrawingRoom Gallery\, where he is represented. Yoo’s paintings and ceramic sculptures have been exhibited nationally and internationally. In Fall 2025\, he joined the University of South Dakota as an Assistant Professor.
