Sunset Park Pottery
Moon jars, cups and the occasional teapot, photographed in daylight
Brooklyn In the club since 2024
-
I have made pots in three cities and settled in Brooklyn for the clay. Once a year I help with a wood firing in the hills, three days of stoking in shifts. I still keep the first bowl I ever threw. It is lopsided and holds keys. Photographs and films of what I make go on my page first.

Salt-fired bottle, shino over slip

Moon jar, white slip
-
I throw everything on the wheel in a shared studio in Sunset Park. Each piece is bisque fired, glazed by hand and fired again to cone 6, and each one is photographed before it goes to a table.
