A Second Season in Lanzhou

Recently I returned from my second summer in Lanzhou, China, as part of the Dunhuang Ceramic Residency. It was another amazing adventure, made all the more sweet by the inclusion of my daughter, Abbey, who was able to come for the entire two month residency.

It was great to see old friends again, both students and colleagues, and to see their work and the ceramics program and Lanzhou City University continuing to thrive. It was also great to work with many new students. 

This year I was one of four American ceramic artists invited to participate.  Keaton Wynn, who helps coordinate the program and who I met last year, as well as Matthew Courtney and Steve Driver. I am grateful to be able to work, travel, and exhibit with such great artists and individuals. The work we made during the residency as well as work made by many faculty and advanced students were part of the final exhibition. While you can find the work I made documented on the "Projects" page, here are a few more pictures from the exhibition.
