SOIL: Common Ground is a three-part podcast series produced by Somerset House exploring what soil can teach us about being human, through the lens of art. Much of the history of human making springs from the soil. Cuneiform, the earliest form of writing, was engraved into clay; paint pigments come from minerals in the soil; and much of our material history is held in ceramics. But soil is not neutral; it is deeply entangled with politics of ownership embedded in the land. In this episode Shenece Oretha probes the ways the soil and clay are inspiring artists today, looking at the stories soil can tell about our past and our potential future. Ceramicist and writer Jennifer Lucy Allan reflects on the ways clay connects us to the earliest forms of making. Artists Annalee Davis and Lauren Gault look at the ways soil bears witness to our histories, from the trauma of the plantation to the deep time of paleontology. We create art from soil, but through our extraction and interaction, it is also changed. How can we heal our relationship with the soil and in so doing, transform our relationship with the planet? Farmer and food justice advocate Leah Penniman unpacks how indigenous practices of soil care can reverse some of the most egregious effects of climate change. The series launches off from the Somerset House exhibition SOIL: The World at Our Feet. Presented by Shenece Oretha Produced by Jo Barratt and Alannah Chance Exec produced by Alannah Chance and Eleanor Ritter-Scott. The series is mixed by Mike Woolley Original music by Andrew Pekler. This series is part of the Somerset House Podcast.

This week the American ceramic artist Heather Knight.  Heather says: "With my work I hope to bridge modern design and the natural world by paring down the essence of things to repetitive textures and basic form.” Heather's all-hand built creations become unique pieces of art of the finest heirloom quality. Heather was born in Houston, TX in 1977; the second youngest of ten siblings in a blended family, which she describes as chaotic. She attended numerous schools as a child and after discovering ceramics in high school she eventually blazed her own trail by choosing colleges with arts programs. However, in 1999, Heather left the College of Charleston to pursue cooking, then later in 2006 she graduated from the University of North Carolina, Asheville with a BFA in Ceramics. After spending time as a chef, Heather returned to art and decided to turn it into a business. She opened Element Clay Studios in Asheville, NC in 2007 and established her style, which is widely recognized for its striking combination of modern textures, patterns and shapes by nature. Heather now lives in Savannah, GA with her two sons Caleb and Oliver. Heather's link:https://www.elementclaystudio.com/#/@elementclaystudio https://www.instagram.com/elementclaystudio Heather's favorite female artists:Giselle HicksPamela SundayValeria NascimientoAriele Alasko Host: Chris StaffordProduced by Hollowell StudiosFollow @theaartpodcast on InstagramAART on FacebookEmail: hollowellstudios@gmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wisp--4769409/support.

Living abroad. Sometimes, it sounds like the solution to all of my problems. All I need to do is choose a country with national healthcare and town with relatively low cost of living, and TA DA! Making a living from the things we make is solved, right? Right? It can look incredibly romantic online - strolling through tiny streets seemingly too small for cars, surrounded by historic architecture and the depths of tradition for a craft we all love. But how does it actually work? Is it really that simple? Much like anything in life and business, there are pluses and there are minuses. And it's up to each of us individually to put those things on a scale and decide what's best for ourselves, individually. However, the decision gets a lot easier when you have more information on the metaphorical scale, which is exactly what this week's conversation with Joy Hanford - an American born ceramicist who's been living in Portugal for the last 20 years - is all about. Big Announcement!The 4 Most Common Instagram Photography Mistakes (and how to avoid them) is coming BACK!

On today's new episode I got to interview Emily Weiner: visual Artist and fellow East Nashvillian, at her fabulous home studio! We discussed the distinctly Jungian and philosophical influence on her work, her creative process and career trajectory, along with her methods of incorporating both the personal and collective unconscious into her process — letting the layers of meaning unfold over time. Her dream she brought to discuss reflects the tension every artist must navigate between the institution and commerce around art vs. the authentic exploration needed to create truly resonant and enduring work. More from her bio: Emily Weiner's paintings consider the art canon through a feminist and Jungian lens. By reconfiguring symbols that have been recycled throughout the history of art, her work questions how archetypal images are shared across generations — and how familiar symbols might be reordered to generate new, collective understanding. Weiner approaches each layer of her painting intuitively, and by working in many layers of paint, finds synchronicity in combinations of colors, forms, and symbols. She creates multimedia frames to further demarcate spaces of suspended disbelief in each of her paintings. Follow Emily's work and various projects here!⁠⁠⁠⁠Psyche Magic Website, Socials and more!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Thank you for being here!

Today on the podcast, I speak to former fashion designer turned ceramicist Deborah Sweeney.After a successful career in fashion that saw her working in New York and London, Deborah returned to New Zealand to establish her fashion label in 2002. Her collections were stocked in select boutiques around the world - including the UK, USA, Japan, Denmark, and Australia; her designs were featured in publications like British Vogue, Women's Wear Daily ID, Nylon, and Elle.However, after fifteen years of running her brand and looking for a change of pace, Deborah took a short sabbatical to spend time with her youngest before he started school. During this time, she completed a clay workshop and fell in love. She left fashion behind in 2017 and has been making ceramics ever since. In the following years, Deborah established herself as a creative and innovative ceramicist. Her work is characterised by its simple yet beautiful aesthetic; her creations exude quiet beauty, reflecting thoughtfulness and consideration. As you listen to Deborah discuss her journey from fashion to clay, you'll see that her natural talent, hard work, and dedication have allowed her to master this new craft and build a thriving business on her own terms.I just loved this chat with Deb. Her thoughtful approach to life and her journey and work are truly inspiring. How cool that taking a break and embarking on a new creative adventure has evolved into a new vocation. After this episode, head straight to @_deborahsweeney_ on Instagram to be mesmerised by Deborah's work, process, beautiful ceramics, and gorgeous studio.

Originally from Scotland, ceramicist Laura Pearson has lived in Japan for 8 years. Now based in Shonan Kamakura--a seaside town about an hour from Tokyo--Laura creates unique homeware pieces that center the user's connection with the items they use every day. Paying mind to the textural and sensory experiences people have when using her pieces, Laura hopes to bring joy to people's everyday lives as they undertake daily rituals like drinking a cup of coffee. The organic forms and textures of her pieces evoke the forms and textures of the natural world, and allow their users to form a connection with each of them as unique works of functional art. With a background in textiles, costume, and fashion design, Laura also hopes to incorporate her past experiences into fabric homewares for her brand in the future.  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thecreativitycafe/message

Coco Elder - The Never Never is on at Art2Muse Gallery until 18th September.  Bellingen Arts Trail 10-12th November  'My artwork is based on observations of the landscape and flora, notably in Ku-Ring-Gai Chase National Park, and more recently in the Bellingen Shire. My initial study in Landscape Architecture has inspired my interest in geology and indigenous botanical landscapes. Overtime, I have witnessed the bush thrive in the wet, fight or recoil in the dry, and brought back to life after the fires. I hope to transcribe reverence for the Australian bush and to reveal the mysterious and alluring qualities of our native plants and the lie of the land.The natural landscape presents as an intriguing paradox. Up close, the bush is an unruly entanglement of prickly menace; from a distance, are distinct interlocking shapes that can be ordered by the eye into Cezanne's geometry. Patterns that appear on the macro level are reiterated at the micro. Whilst bodies of water lead the eye in and outwards through reflections, there is a mysterious chasm in time, yet it also appears infinite. Shadows of texture hem and define vibrations of light. I endeavour to capture some of these subtle ambiguities in my work.I retrace the place, coming closer to the essence of form, yet ironically remove it, by carving back through the surface. The image becomes a visual description that blends aspects of botanical documentation (like the early Australian artists); a journey through nature, (influenced by Japanese scrolls); and a personal expression through patterns of whimsy, and reflections on the past inhabitants, the Carigal and Gumbaynggirr people, whose presence are keenly felt.'thanks Coco for your time and good luck with the Bellingen arts trail!

In this episode, we dig in the dirt a bit  with Leanne McClurb Cambric. She's an acclaimed and exhibiting  ceramicist who hand builds functional art.  Here we discuss her creative origins story and the idea function in art, while also factoring the extensive history of clay and pottery.  Leanne is also a professor and head of the BFA/MFA program at Governor's State University, just a bit south of Chicago, Illinois. It is in that role that she created a whole course on creativity.  While having a great conversation with Leanne, Catherine and Steve explore means of sneaking in or enrolling in said class. At the very least we'll explore some of the resources that Leanne shared in this episode.

On today's episode, I go for a hike in the Catskills, with local artist and ceramicist extraordinaire, Cheyenne Mallo. Cheyenne and her partner Zac handmake functional pottery such as mugs, bowls and dishes that feature topographic map-imagery of mountains, hiking trails and rivers out of their home studio. I've been a big fan of Cheyenne's style ever since I first laid eyes on one of her mugs back in 2017. As someone who is drawn to all things hiking maps and coffee-drinking, I certainly fall right into her target market, and have been happily adding her pieces to my kitchen cabinets ever since. My fan-girling got a major boost last summer, when I got to chat with her in person at an event in the Catskills and find out just how much she beams with mid-western friendliness.   During this conversation we talk about her love for hiking and her connection to her surroundings, her artistic process, the importance of residency programs in the arts, as well as some of the challenges and joys of being a small business owner. It was a true pleasure to head out for a walk alongside Cheyenne in the very landscape that inspires her art!Discount Links:Anjali's Cup Turmeric Blends — use code “GIRLGOTTAHIKE” for 15% off your cart at anjaliscup.comGossamer Gear — use code “GIRLGOTTAHIKEGOSSAMER” for 15% off your first purchase at GossamerGear.comCheck out GG's amazing backpack lineup here:Mariposa (60-Liter)Gorilla (50-Liter)G4-20 (42-Liter)Kumo 36 (36-Liter)Cheyenne Mallo can be found at:@cheynnemallo on InstagramCheyenne Mallo Pottery websiteCheyenne Mallo on ETSYOther info:Ashokan Quarry Trail info from Catskill Mtn.

Welcome to Season 3, Imposters! Wowza it is great to be back. I hope you did all sorts of things you were afraid to do while this pod was on a break. We are ringing in Season 3 with a talented and incredible artist - the owner of S.T.CAO Ceramics, Steph Cao. Steph left her 9-5 job a few years ago to pursue her ceramic art full time and hasn't looked back. She didn't study art, and though she loved playing with clay as a young human, she didn't find her way to it full time until she was an adult. There were many reasons for this, but one lesson reigns true: believe you can and just do it. Find Steph: Website IG Find Courtney: Email: ynqpod@gmail.com IG Website Twitter

This week I am admiring ceramicist Rachel Saunders and had the pleasure of diving into the many realms and roads that she walks. We explored her foundations and what got her to where she is today and the power of prayer, play, and clay. 

In Episode 7—Captain Sepulveda explains what happened recently to his men at New York Presbyterian hospital. Ramler, who's being held at gunpoint, has to decide—is it time for an on-the-spot-correction… or something else? He shares some backstory about what's in the crate, and how its contents overlap with classified Los Alamos research being done in Puerto Rico. Previously—In episode 6, the Ceramicist, we learn from Dr. Vandyck that Mr. Spillers, in addition to having extremely long life, can revivify people—can literally bring them back from the dead—which he does to Anton Ramler, after crushing his skull. We see this happen in the area J aperture. A few months later, the freshly resurrected Ramler pays a visit to captain Sepulveda at building one. Things start off well, but take a turn for the worse when the captain suspects that Ramler's stories are flat out lies, and that he's concealing something about New York Presbyterian hospital. So he calls bullshit—then pulls a gun, and demands to know everything about the mysterious detainee Ramler's so curious to see—Jesus Santiago.

In episode 6—We find out about one of Spillers additional capabilities, alluded to by Dr. Vandyck in the previous episode. We also watch as Captain Sepulveda greets a visitor to building one—an FBI interrogator sent by station chief John Spillers. On the face of things, the purpose of this man's visit is to demonstrate interrogation techniques, but Sepulveda doesn't quite trust him. For good reason. Previously—In episode 5, The Hawk's Bells, we learned that in 1518, John Spillers went to a small Taino village in Aymamio to collect gold (what is now Aguadilla, Puerto Rico). When he discovered there was none to be had, he killed every man, woman, and child. Brutally. All except the young boy Hayuya, who we learn, is actually the young version of Santiago (the old jibaro who was held in the calabozo of la Princesa). Observing the events of 1518 through an aperture portal at Area J, Dr. Vandyck explains that the event stream is not simply a mathematical construct, but a highly complex system—what she calls a consciousness producing biome that behaves exactly like an organism. Further, that some humans have the ability to alter their energetic luminescence in ways that are not fully understood. One example of this is Spillers, who she describes as an aberration threatening to destabilize the event stream. Another example is Santiago, who she mentions is a shape shifter. Her theory is that these two men are on a collision course, and that the event stream has deployed Santiago as a sort of countermeasure to Spillers, in an attempt to set itself back into equilibrium.

Trayci Tompkins is a Storyteller, Adventurer, Ceramicist and Artist. We were so happy to connect with Trayci before she left her home in South East Africa and headed to the UK for her new adventure. A beautiful conversation about connection to land and other humans around the world, and the joy of a simple life lead noticing the magic in chickens and goats. Trayci has a true artists eye in the way she approaches every day, and it was a complete joy having her open her world to us.

This week,  Stauney talks about Beatrice Wood, otherwise known as the "Mama of Dada" due to her influential role in the early Dada art movement in New York. Although she grew up in a wealthy affluent household, she ran away to become a painter and actress against her family's wishes, mingling with the early avant-garde artists of New York Society before joining the theoreticism movement and landing in Ojai California as a sculptor. She lived 105 years, and every single one of them was filled with absolutely humorous and legendary moments that created such an iconic artist, and would even go on to inspire a character from the major hit film, Titanic.Episodes to check out after this one: Hilma Af KlintWant to check out some of our favorite books?

On this week's installment of Swell Season Surf Radio: The Art and Design Series, Chris Labzda and Chris Coffin sit down with Jon Baylor; Surfer, Ceramicist, and Curator of the recently opened exhibition “Rising Tide: Reflections of Surf Art and Culture” at The Jamestown Arts Center in Jamestown, Rhode Island. Baylor, of Wakefield, RI, has been a mainstay in the south county surf community for over 15 years and collaborates with his wife, Ashley, in their studio practice and business, Salt Pond Pottery. Baylor's aesthetic sensibilities are broad in scope; inspired by the conflation of organic forms and industrial structures. Baylor is equally inspired by honeycombs, board shapers and the systems theory and architecture of Buckminster Fuller.

Ceramicist, author, entrepreneur, photographer and public speaker Rob Forbes is likely best known for founding Design Within Reach, but his accolades expand beyond this accomplishment. He grew up a son of Southern California academics and attended boarding schools in Northern California. His first professional life was as a ceramicist. After a year riddled with tragedy, he took a year off in pursuit of researching how to make design accessible - which lead to the founding of Design Within Reach. A wild (and unexpected) success, the next few years were a blur that instilled in Rob a confidence to continue to push the envelope and invest in change - including a variety of start ups, a micro-farm, and using the tools of design to create long-lasting impact.

Nico Conti is a ceramic artist who is working clay in exciting, radical new ways. From his undergraduate days at MCAST in Malta to finishing top of his class at the Royal College of Art in 2019, he has continually excelled. In the short space of a few years he has won numerous prestigious awards and scholarships. He is represented by major galleries and has already  exhibited in craft fairs where his work was singled out for praise.

GUEST BIO Ivan C Lopez is an artist from San Francisco by way of Columbia. He co-founded and helped build Artillery Art Gallery - a creative community space in the heart of the Mission. His passion to provide space for community inspires others to find what has been explorative and healing for him. Through ceramics and painting, Ivan hopes to bring balance; within a connection to the natural world alongside the concrete walls of the city. I wanted to speak with Ivan because he connects this idea of the modern human being returning to our wild selves by communing with our indigenous selves. Not only through embracing creativity, but through encouraging and teaching others to pick up a brush to play with colors. Or taking a lump of clay and sitting at a table to be creative together. In this way, we embrace our childlike curiosity to explore and meditate upon the infinite ways of knowing ourselves, just in the same way we were created from virtually nothing. In this conversation, Ivan shares his creative process, his journey in his lifetime exploration of art, self-discovery, and community. Please enjoy this stream of consciousness conversation beneath a canopy of redwood trees in McClaren Park San Francisco, on Ohlone Rammaytus land - with the artist, the wild human, the mindfully grounded, Ivan Camilo Lopez.

On today's show, I speak to Ellie Duncan from Island Ceramics. Ellie is a ceramicist who makes incredible one-of-a-kind hand-crafted pieces that are inspired by her love of the sea and her island home. Ellie is also a photographer who loves to capture the many forms that the sea can take. In this episode, we talk about how she started her business and how she found herself at the potter's wheel. We speak about how the sea inspires her work and how using the colours and the dialect words that we use to describe the sea are important to her collections. We speak about her photography and how she has been taking photographs since she was 11 years old, and why it's important to slow down and live in the moment. We also discuss the problems associated with plastic pollution and how everyone can do their bit to mitigate these.
