Bethel, ME
Martha is a functional potter, living in Bethel, Maine, creating thrown and altered porcelain pieces. She received an undergraduate degree in Architecture from Bennington College in Vermont and received a MFA in ceramics from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. She thinks of the fluid visual movement around a piece, as a choreographer would move dancers across a stage. There is a sense of revealing and concealing, a layering of details that serves to catch our attention immediately and then the details draw us in, to make a closer inspection.
