Richard James Studio

Bio: Ever since my first experience with wood firing, I developed a close connection with its ideals, process, and philosophy of asthetics which mirrored my own ideas about life as a whole. Wood firing is a very labor intensive process, taking three times longer than any other form of finishing pots. The risk to the work is also multiplied three fold. But the reward is beauty and truth imbued into the clay that is one hundred times that of any other process. As an artist, I can only manipulate the variables under my control to a certain level, it takes the touch of something elemental and powerful, something without consciousness and working in conjunction to make great art. I don't astrive to control the life of the fire, but to create a dialog with it that is recorded in the soul of the clay. Much of my work does not "match the sofa" or feel smooth to the touch like a prefabricated cup. I make this trade off in the hope that my work will keep giving inspiration to the owner long after the newness is worn off, that it will be work that reveals something new periodically over time, like a good friend.
