ABOUT JENN 

ARTIST, STUDENT, EDUCATOR.
Picture
​I have my BA in Fine Arts in Ceramics from New Hampshire Institute of Art, along with my Master's in Teaching Visual Arts. I focus on exploring landscape within the final surfaces of my ceramic work, and enjoy constantly sharing knowledge and experiences with the people around me.

Artist Statement

I represent memories through abstract landscapes which blanket the mostly functional vessels in my work. The memories I kept as a child are extremely vague, merely just a representation of an event, at best. My clearest and most sentimental memories with my family are of when we would go camping, regardless of the setting it took place in. The uncertainty of these memories, or why my brain chooses to remember them, is reflected in the abstraction of the landscapes on my ceramics. Wood-firing became incorporated with my work — for it creates a special kind of uncertainty. The river of flame that flows through the kiln is undiscovered prior to the firing, it is unknown what will come of it. Trusting the unknown becomes a necessity in this process, which is something I am oddly comfortable with.
 
I strive to transform my awareness of my memories into the world’s awareness of my work. The functionality within the work varies due to the assortment of memories I want people to create, when connecting with my work.  Once the pots belong to somebody else, the idea is they will be creating new memories. The way one interacts with an object or a space is crucial to the memories that survive within ones anamnesis.
