Artist Statement
Beautiful things are formed from dust.
Simply dust. It takes a creator, an artist, to take something of no value and
make something beautiful. In this case a potter is being shown in the process
of creating something. Only the potter’s hands are shown, because they are the
only part that physically does the creating. I want to show the potter’s hands
in action. These photographs were inspired by the song “Beautiful Things” by
Gungor and the text in the photographs are lyrics from the song. Although I am
portraying a potter, the song makes reference to people being made and formed.
In other words, we are like clay that is being formed into something beautiful
by our creator.
