Every piece of pottery tells a story. Form, color, finish, design, size—it all speaks for the artist and their heritage, interests, personal history, culture and inspiration. If a pot could be made in 10 minutes, it would carry with it less information, but pots can take days, weeks and months. An artist has to sit with it, feel it in their hands and agonize over its creation. A potter might spend more time with that pot in a day than they do with their spouse or kids. It lives with the artist, in their mind and in their soul. It fills their imagination. It’s impossible for a part of the artist not to end up in the clay. Each pot is a record of their life while it was being created. It’s for these reasons that pottery is one of the most popular categories at galleries, musuems, auctions, markets and fairs. We hope you enjoy our 2025 pottery section! —
