Joerling Artist Statement
I make pots as much from a drawing sensibility as a pottery one. Daydream=

ing
with a pencil. Not drawing as rendering but simply doodling, then working=
=3D
hard to get that drawing to function. Profile is therefore a strong
attraction, a strong dictate, as are the smaller spaces within spaces. An=

of course that sense of animation. My pot reference is most often you and=

I,
our bodies. It's where my cues come from: dance, people seated on a park
bench, the cleavage that forms on the inside of a bent elbow. But I want =
=3D
to
stay in the pot's world--- if the reference is too literal the pots seem
deflated. In my studio what I hope for are pots that have qualities of
sensuality, compassion, humor, and risk.
