Pottery by Design is part of a trio of exhibitions specifically crafted for DesignPhiladelphia 2014. The Clay Studio's design-focused exhibitions showcase both the depth and breadth of design in contemporary ceramics.
In a world where autoCAD and rapid prototyping tend to dominate, it is worth remembering that potters have been honing their design skills for over 10,000 years. For this exhibition, The Clay Studio will exhibit functional work by contemporary potters. Each potter will produce a brief video that explains a design decision (visual, functional or ergonomic) in their work that is based on a lifetime of experience with clay. –
