Andrew Clark

Andrew is currently exploring work that comes from an interest in machinery and engineering. Influenced by schematic cutaway drawings and simple mechanical devices he aims to make functional pottery that features a mechanized process. Terra sigillata and underglaze allows him to put moving parts into his work. Bright contrasting colors separate the layers he creates which is similar to schematic drawings separating each part of the machine through color. Through the process of problem solving he seeks to find a combination of a simple functional vessel and a complex machine.

Andrew has a BFA with a Concentration in Ceramics from Union University, Jackson, TN
