Setting up for craft shows is a process of chaotic mayhem, lugging delicate handmade wares to and fro, fighting traffic in my minivan, remembering snacks… There is always a moment during set up that feels like I am am buried in a pit of snakes and there is no escape. 🐍 💀 But in the end, calm and order wins! Come shop the last day of Renegade Craft in Seattle, 11-5.

Last week, i worked with 📍PDX | Texture Specialist - Scalp Care - Health Coaching cara lindsay Mollie Cartwright-Smith to create an eerie, gorgeous collaboration. We worked in URBANITE PDX , absorbed in the natural light reflected on rough textured walls. I hung pressed clay slabs of my face and my brother’s face in a grid against the painted cinder blocks, and loved the way the traffic patterns sparkled across them. Working with this team, and making art just to make, felt so deeply refreshing and energizing. There was a natural, organic flow to our collaboration, and I was reminded in these hours how important it is to hold space for these moments. I came away thinking a lot about making art, and then also about our responses to art, our perspectives, and how we ourselves become part of the process, reflected back. I’m excited to share the final results. Thank you, thank you to this amazing team and location.

A cascading collection of my ceramic balls will be showing Cargo in the elevator gallery! Please join me Saturday 10/3, from 4-6pm, for the opening. I am immensely proud of this collection!

A little over a year ago, I made my first ceramic ball strand for a show at URBANITE PDX . I wanted to express myself (and my creative world) through stacked clay colors and textures. I loved how the different ceramic balls became cohesive when I combined them with similar hues, and how the texture of another ball acted as a comma, or thoughtful pause in the strand. 

Initially designed for interior spaces, I imagined the ceramic ball strands hanging in entry ways or as part of a gallery wall, adding organic dimension. I quickly realized the ceramic ball strands are also amazing additions to gardens, porches and pergolas. 

Although made from clay, the ball strands are comprised of hollow forms and not too heavy. Ranging from 2 to 7 pounds, they can be installed with a simple ceiling hook, or wall bracket. I also have custom wooden wall hooks for an elevated installation.

See you Saturday! xo Anna
