Valerie Dearing
Artist Statement:
“My work in ceramic sculpture is connected to my interest in the energies of the natural world and universes in space. I am attuned to the vibrations of bodies of water, rocks, trees, changes and shifting of land as earthquakes & volcanoes, the sun, moon & stars. I can form & fire clay just as the earth changes her form. This is my art”
