We are only THREE DAYS away from our spring open house! A Mother’s Day/ Spring is Coming Popup Art Sale.
MEET THE ARTIST:
Lori Gardinier
Lori is one of our guest artists!
“Pottery provides the perfect distraction during the pandemic. Csikszentmihalyi (1992), describes a flow state, when cognitive and physical efforts are integrated through a creative process. This state can promote a distorted sense of time, and limit room to think about anything else. Pottery is particularly amenable to flow as it requires a high degree of focus and there are endless challenges and new skills to develop. Csikszentmihalyi suggests that flow is optimal when a person’s skill allows for you to keep mastering the challenge and when the feedback is unambiguous. This idea aligns with my drive to keep trying new forms and designs, rather than meticulously perfecting my work.
Although I do occasionally produce decorative items, I prefer to focus on functional wares that are integrated into daily life. “
Lori is also co-creator of Choice Ceramics.
