About The Artist
Meredith Knight • Montgomery, AL
Ceramics • WHOLESALE AVAILABLE • CUSTOM COMMISSIONS
The spatial composition references textile patterns. I grew up encircled by the comfort of homemade textiles and now surround others in similar ways. Those soft and fleeting moments are captured in ceramic form as a gesture to capture sensorial memories of warmth and belonging. I have always loved figuring out patterns and looking at beautiful crafts. For "Embrace", "Encircle", and "Ebb and Flow", I digitally create 2-dimensional designs that I transfer onto clay slabs. I preciously cut out the designs leaving an intricate matrix of clay. Working quickly and spontaneously I drape, wrap, push and pull the flat pieces of clay into three-dimensional forms. For "(Im)mutability", I digitally design and print 3-dimensional forms that use to create slip cast molds. All pieces are bisque fired and I add color usually in the form of underglaze, firing again at least once more.
