Chain Reaction -- Elizabeth Robinson
Sam Taylor started the Chain Reaction
... by inviting D. Hayne Bayless ... who invited Louise Harter ... who invited Ellen Huie ... who invited Matt Hardwick ... who invited Elizabeth Robinson The pots I craft represent my place in the world, their physicality assembles a sense of the lineage I feel lacking. I am inspired by the myriad of forms and processes I encounter through experience and research: from traditional crafts to industrial ceramics to contemporary paintings. These influences combine to narrate a cultural identity that is revealed within the details of each piece. I use imagery in a manner both nostalgic and iconic. Fragments of domestic patterns and textbook diagrams converse and instruct. Incised and drawn lines intersect and underlie the transfers - continuing the arc of a handle or emphasizing the awkwardness of a spout rammed against the body of a teapot. Thus, I find that something as straightforward as a cup can be a profound thing. Something simple and useful functions also as a record of its maker, an object of contemplation, of consumption and an accessory to the rituals of both serving and dining. -- Elizabeth Robinson
