The Studio Chair

"Sumpter" of a Surprise

4/16/2014

 
Picture
I was doing a little surfing of artist calls this morning when I stumbled across one curated by the Sumpter County Gallery of Art in SC.  Sounded pretty interesting, so I went to the SCGA website to check them out. This photo is from their "about" page. See the sculpture in the front right of the photo? That's one of mine, one of the pieces I made for my MFA Thesis show. HA! Who knew?

    A place for me to ramble on when I need to take a break.

About David  

David J. P. Hooker lives and works in the greater Chicago area, where he is an artist and Chair of the Art Department at Wheaton College. He received an M.F.A. in Ceramics from Kent State University and a B.A. in English from Furman University. 
 
His artistic practice explores the inherent value of materials, objects, and places, hoping to find ways to better connect and understand the world we live in. Recently he was awarded the Dunhuang Ceramic Residency and spent two months as artist in residence in Lanzhou, China. 
 
When David is not freaking out over deadlines, he enjoys spending time with his wife, Elaine, his children Abbey and Samuel, and the family cat, Evee. He also enjoys baseball, BBQ, and tennis—not necessarily in that order.
