Here is another “Closed Forms Opened” box, a line of work currently in stoneware made by throwing two closed forms on the wheel, opening them, then combining. #Studiopottery #Ceramicarts #Pottery #Stoneware #Sculpture #Informatted #Mnartist #Matthewedmondsceramics

A handful of large cups in the works with letter press type patterns pressed into them, they are barbed with little finger rests for ease of use for smaller hands. #Studiopottery #Pottery #Ceramicarts #Mnartist #matthewedmondsceramics #informatted

Two closed forms opened, small flower top box, zogan surface — the first example put out there in public of the stoneware work that I’ve been exploring based on the citrus sculpture sketches. #Clay #Ceramics #Stoneware #Pottery #Sculpture #Matthewedmondsceramics #Informatted #Mnartist #Inspiration

A tiny little blood orange peel sculpture sketch to document — inspiration for work happening in stoneware at the moment, a much slower medium than citrus peels. #inspiration #studiopottery #ceramics #matthewedmondsceramics #matthewedmonds #informatted #mnartist

Tiny double closed forms opened box on sculptural element drying. May or may not add a bit more slip to soften the high contrast before bisque, or not. Hmmm. #Studiopottery #Pottery #Stoneware #Ceramicarts #Informatted #Matthewedmondsceramics

Another citrus sculpture sketch to document — inspiration for some recent work in stoneware. They all are opened and remain one piece, it’s amazing to me how all forms seem to be representable from the sphere. #informatted #matthewedmondsceramics #ceramic #pottery #inspiration

Letterpress cups with knobs came through bisque just fine, mostly, with one reverting to the oval it was for a moment. :-/ Small batches means slow movement towards desired / favorable results. Poco a poco. #Informatted #Studiopottery #Pottery #Stoneware #Mnartist #Matthewedmondsceramics

Citrus sculpture sketch PSA—inspiration for ceramics work of the moment. Life lately is plump full of terrors, but have you noticed how pretty the sky still can be? Put down the tech, breathe and <3 your neighbors. #Inspiration #Studiopottery #Ceramics #Stoneware #Matthewedmondsceramics #Mnartist

Two Closed Forms Opened box with zogan (aka Mishima) surface (inlaid porcelain). Largest opened sculpture I’ve pulled off to date. So many ideas in this vein to chase, yet so little time. Poco a poco. #Mnartist #Studiopottery #Ceramicarts #Pottery #Sculpture #Informatted #Matthewedmondsceramics

I showed a lot of these citrus peel sculpture sketches to my 92 year old grandmother today and she said this one was “frightening”. Perhaps you get the same vibe? These are inspiration for stoneware work of late. #Informatted #Inspiration #studiopottety #Matthewedmondsceramics #Ceramics #Pottery

Some recents outta the kiln with a new pin-holing mystery to resolve :/. Probs will end up giving vast majority away, as I have with everything I don’t keep (until the studio is complete at home:). <3 using the mini mugs for wine. ;) #informatted #studiopottery #mnartist #matthewedmondsceramics

Fresh tea bowl setting the pace for my cup game. Very much enjoy the slight transparency / darker tone that the glossy brings to the thin slip pours and the textural contrast between glossy and uncoated areas. #Informatted #Stoneware #Studiopottery #Pottery #Mnartist #Matthewedmondsceramics

Re-Glimpse of one of the “Arp’s Dead White Squirrel” porcelain sculptures made spring of 24’. Only a small handful made as felt I’d said enough, but kinda want to revisit, as too much fun. #toomanyideas #ceramics #studiopottery #informatted #matthewedmondsceramics #mnartist
