I'm looking for potters who intentionally break their work at some point
in the making process and then "reconstruct" them....any names ,websites
or email addresses would be fantastic...also is their a Japanese technique
which encorporates this?

Genie Thompson is a ceramic instructor in Santa Barbara and shows at
the Santa Barbara Art and Craft Show every Sunday. Her white
horsehair raku is fantastic, she breaks and reassembles them. She has
other talents as well, of course. Don't have her website, not sure if
she has one. But her address is Gitca@aol.com.
Good luck...

Dear Helen;
George Kokis did this for awhile. Now, he is letting the pieces
dissolve in the Oregon rain...... and recording their evolution......
or is that devolution? A matter of perspective.

The late Rick Dillingham was well-known for
doing this, and he was consciously aware of the
Japanese precendent (gold/lacquer repairs) when
he started, though he diverged from any obvious
connection quite early on. He started in college
with a few 'visible glue' pieces, but later
made a career of breaking the work, decorating
the work in pieces, then reintegrating the piece
without any particular emphasis on the cracks.
The disjointedness of the surface treatment was
the visible evidence, more so than the cracks
themselves.
The Japanese stuff, of course, was not purposely
broken. The fancy repairs were an elegant way
of saving valued but damaged objects.

Helen -
Two potters are Patrick Crabb and the late Rick Dillingham. You can do web
searches for both of them. Some of the most interesting work I have seen
using that technique is of course the archaeological restoration you see in
museums. I like the pieces where there is a lot of filler reconstructing
the spaces where pieces of the original vessel are missing. Some ancient
Greek vessels are mostly filler, with only a few pieces of the original.
Best wishes -

I amke large slabs and chinese brush paint them, then I raku fire them and flash cool them with a fan allowing them to break. Then I reassemble them. The breaks add to the aethetic.

Helen:
There is a course being taught at Anderson Ranch this year, for that
exact thing. It's called "Vessels: a deconstruction approach to
creativity" and is being taught by Patrick S Crabb.
No connection to either the ranch or Mr Crabb, but since you
asked...for more, according to the catalog, patrickshiacrabb.com
Hope that helps,
Wayne Seidl

Dear Helen Plaxton,
Not sure if he is on the web but try Petrus Spronk, an Australian

I have occasionally made creative use and reconstructions of broken pieces
three or four raku here http://www.gartside.info/gallerylowfire12.htm
and a couple here too http://www.gartside.info/gallerypaperclay12.htm
epoxy resin, steel nuts and bolts and even low melting frit in the
raku fire have been employed in the reconcstruction.
I am really curious to know what prompted your interest in this...
I know that Patrick Crabb (patrick crabb )
...try googling him... also practised that method too

He does raku, breaks them and reconstructs. Amazing stuff.
