A blog post from Studio Stiina, a potter in Princeton, BC, about her journey working with #wildclay from her home province Saskatchewan. We’ve been emailing back and forth ever since she finished reading my clay zine. Aside from the technical stuff, there’s so much sentiment around connection to a place through its clay, which I relate to deeply. In so many different senses, clay holds memory.

Studio StiinaWild Clay Process — Studio Stiina(Scroll to the bottom for the TL;DR version) In the summer of 2020, my husband Kalevi was using an excavator to make a dugout (water pond) for our cows, and a chunk of yellow clay fell out of the side of the hole. He decided to bring it home for me and it started me on a 2 year journey to discover

It takes me at least a couple of hours to decorate a pot this size. I brush three layers of terra sigillata into each section, alternating the different types of clay in a rhythmic symmetry. Then I’ll bisque fire the pot, apply glaze and fire one last time. I haven’t made as much progress this week as I would have liked so I may end up working a bit this weekend, which is something I try to avoid. Have a good weekend, everyone.

Tile made by the potter Jan Spoer from Issum, NRW, Germany. in 1721.
The tile was made as an advertisement for his work with a proud plea for his craftsmanship and the request not to haggle on the price because he makes honest work that deserves a fair price.

Recently an exhibition opened in Officinet with the ambiguous title Ødeland (‘Wasteland’), where the exhibited objects are an expression of everything other than wasting materials or leaving the planet as a… wasteland. The exhibition is about rethinking the way we use resources to make ceramics. Read full review in Formkraft.dk (Danish and English)

Olla update: I’ve had my #garden ollas in place for 2 weeks now and they are still half to 2/3 full of water. The seedlings around them have grown steadily. We’ve had light rain once in the last two weeks. The true test will be when temperatures start to soar, but so far this #irrigation method has been impressively easy & efficient. It’s wild to know that an #ancienttechnology can still be so useful and relevant. I love clay! #pottery #ceramics #keramik #permaculture #gardening #ollasbyosa
