Never forget the highly skilled artisans and craftspeople who spent hundreds of hours chiseling away at every molded acanthus or cartouche.Long overdue, but apropos timing — photos from our opening reception at OPEN in February. Photos by @rachelmaevephotography Tăcut Ca O Cioară Vopsitǎ (Silent Like A Painted Crow), 2026Ceramic, glaze, wood, venetian stucco, paper pulp, pigment, adhesive, auto flake, gold, silver and copper leaf, paint, fine and coarse grog, hardware, sketches and research, 11 loud speakers, spot lightsAn evolution of my thesis work, with new pieces and a site-specific sound composition by Christopher Mayes-Wright, continuing the story of The Arch and The Looking Glass: Umbli Cu Cioara Vopsită.

Part 1 of my @risd_ceramics Residency is almost complete!Last year I was awarded the Graduate Ceramic Award at graduation (a serious “pinch me” moment), which included time and space to create in the field of Digital Ceramics with the @3dpotter It’s been amazing to be back at work in the department, surrounded by inspiring students and faculty, and getting to work on some ideas that I didn’t have time for during the busy thesis / grad school hustle.I’m printing and building up ideas for now, and will return this summer to complete this body of work ️ … maybe some whacky multi-fire gloopy in-glaze lustres are on the horizon? Huge thanks to @lesley.art and @risd_ceramics for the continued support and home away from home #studioapop #digitalceramics #3dpotter #3dpotterbot #ceramics
