Historic Yellow Springs invites you to a lecture with internationally known potter, teacher and writer Jack Troy,
Troy will speak on this theme in a style that engages the audience in its weaving of words and images with his experience and knowledge of the ceramic medium. A humble master of both clay and language, his anecdotal stories include valuable technical and aesthetic considerations, humorous depictions of artistic challenges as a potter, and inspiring new ideas. Also included in the presentation, slides of Troy’s pottery reveal sources of inspiration as well as his understanding of ceramic history and its continuity to the present day. Troy adds, “In addition to documenting my work in clay with images, I will also be reading and reciting some of my poems—many of which are pottery related—that are important aspects of my expression."
If you have a passion for clay, art, poetry, or the process of transformation, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
