BOB KINZIE
Artist Statement
My long years involved with the potters wheel recently includes
experiments with the application of wet clay to a thrown cylinder
which are then expanded from the inside, coupled with selective
drying.
The resultant surface has elements of inadvertency
reminiscent of the Mingei style.
Using a variation of tools on the wet clay gives me a variety of
surprising textures, that keep me exploring for more.
By using these textured slabs I can create numerous vase forms
by hand building with them.
