Clay art is part of a language of touch as well as sight and the intellect, with a long and evolving story, as making and firing clay objects has spread from one person to another, and from one part of the world to another for at least 30,000 years. Participating in this tradition becomes a complex dance with sets of shifting partners connecting past and present as much as the makers and users of the arts. These rich resources of ideas, form and process bind us and make our lives more transparent to one another. I never tire of waiting for the surprises they reveal as they come from the fire.
