About My Work

As a ceramic artist, nature lover, and knitter,  I am drawn to the sensory experience of domestic craft and the natural environment; I reinterpret these passions through the lens of ceramics. 

​

Some of my work, known as 'knit porcelain', lives at that intersection of softness and strength, where the nature of fiber and clay are challenged-transforming fiber, typically fluid and soft, into something strong and enduring. 

​

Alongside my exploration and experimentation with knit porcelain, I create functional ware that is intended to be a bridge between life and art - objects that carry natural beauty and utility.

​

My practice is rooted in authenticity. Whether knit, hand built, or thrown, each piece is an offering of my time and creative energy. 

 

I hope you will enjoy experiencing my work as much as I have enjoyed making it.

​About My Studio Practice

My love for the natural environment has shaped the way I operate my studio. Michi Pottery was certified by Durango Four Core as a Green Business in 2024.

 

I recycle clay and slip, studio water is recycled, the studio and kiln is powered by solar energy (weather permitting), and studio materials are collected, repurposed, and/or disposed of thoughtfully. I am always thinking of ways that my practice can tread lightly on our planet.
