The pots in the exhibition Trace speak both to my desire to belong, to connect to my beginnings, and yet to still trace my own path forward; they are about making connections and missing connections. Through these pots I ask questions of myself and the world around me in an attempt to negotiate the edges of my life. How do I feel connected and present in my own life and relationships? How do I feel connected to my family and my roots, while still finding my own path? What does it mean to belong in a family that is divided by great physical distance? What is the cure for loneliness? My work is intended to convey a sense of life lived, and life still to be lived. Each pot is a snapshot of the journey, a tether that connects me to me, and me to youa memory frozen in mud-made-stone for years to come.
