The Beauty of Mud

An Exhibition of Fine Craft Pottery

March 7 – April 30

In honor of “Mud Season” we are highlighting the work of talented potters whose hands transform earth into objects we live with every day.  From wood-fired mugs to sculptural vessels, each piece carries the marks of touch, flame, and intention.

Pottery asks us to slow down. To feel weight and texture. To wrap our hands around something real. Each piece in this exhibition has been shaped, carved, glazed, and fired — often over several weeks. No two are identical. The flame leaves its mark. The maker leaves their signature touch. In a season when the earth itself feels soft and shifting, there’s something grounding about holding a handmade mug or discovering a vessel that feels like it was made just for you.

 

Sarah Burns Demonstration

Saturday, March 21 

Join us in the gallery as Sarah shares her process and presents new work — including a year-long collaboration with photographer Susan Lirakis.

For the past year, Sarah and Susan have been working together on a thoughtful and beautifully crafted project. Sarah has created hand-carved, wood-fired stoneware “Home” frames designed specifically to hold Susan’s evocative photographic images. The result is a meaningful union of mediums — earth and image, texture and light.

Each wood-fired frame carries the organic surfaces and natural ash effects that emerge from the kiln’s intense heat. Paired with Susan’s contemplative photography, the work speaks to place, belonging, and the quiet beauty of home.

This collaboration is truly special — and even more powerful experienced in person.  No registration required
