<em>This is a conversation between <a href="https://studiopotter.org/kari-radasch">Kari Radasch</a>, <a href="https://studiopotter.org/elizabeth-robinson">Elizabeth “Beth” Robinson</a>,
and me, Leanne McClurg Cambric, who documented it. We all are working
artists and moms of young kids, who graduated from high-profile masters
programs in the early 2000s and have had a running fifteen-year dialogue
about our struggles to balance our personal and professional lives.
Even finding time for a conversation like this one was a challenge, as
we live in three different time zones.</em><br />

<i>"My current work is concerned with patterns made popular by 20th century
wallpaper design. Although I mainly work in slip cast tiles, I see
pottery as a way to invite those elements back into the domestic
setting. Through the subtlety of daily use, I hope these designs will
invoke nostalgia of past homes and heartfelt spaces for the user. " ~ </i>Jackie Head<br />

The International Studio & Curatorial Program (ISCP) announces
three open calls for artist residencies in New York City in 2017–18,
funded by The Pollock-Krasner Foundation, National Endowment for the
Arts, and SAHA Association. In addition, Norwegian and Finnish sponsors
are currently accepting applications for ISCP residencies.<br />
Each residency includes 24-hour access to a private 300 sq. ft.
studio space in Brooklyn, studio visits from visiting critics and an
appointed advisor; field trips to museums, galleries and other cultural
venues; and participation in artist talks and Open Studios. In addition,
residents have the opportunity to work with a studio assistant, develop
projects in the public realm with the support of ISCP staff, and are
invited to take part in ISCP’s exhibition program. Residents become part
of a growing network of international artists and curators who are ISCP
alumni.<br />
<b>ISCP Pollock-Krasner Residency</b><br />
ISCP is currently accepting applications from visual artists including
painters, sculptors, and artists who create installations, or work on
paper, including printmakers, who are eligible to work in the United
States, for a fully-funded five-month residency, from September 1, 2017
to January 31, 2018, plus living and materials stipends (approximately
2,300 USD per month).<br />
The selection committee will review applications based on quality,
originality and artistic merit. Other consideration factors are: the
potential impact of the residency on the applicant, the applicant’s past
accomplishments, and preparedness to undertake the residency. Studio
visits/interviews with finalists will be held by the selection
committee.<br />
Application deadline: April 15, 2017<br />

ISCP announces an open call for a fully-funded four-month residency,
from September 1 to December 31, 2017, plus stipend (500 USD per month)
for an artist whose work focuses on documentary practices. The selected
resident will be expected to research, develop and produce at least one
project on one or more of the following issues: fact and fiction, the
representation of the real, and ethics and the documentary. This work
will be included in an ISCP exhibition in October 2017. Applications
will be accepted from visual artists in all disciplines who are based

and includes a stipend of up to 7,000 USD for accommodation and living
expenses in New York City, and related travel costs.<br />

a maker I rely on the central role of utilitarian objects as vehicles
for nourishment. This role entwines the object in a complex relationship

use utilitarian ceramic objects as a conduit to speak further about
connections and relationships between human beings and the rest of the
natural world. This complex intricate network creates intersections

work focuses on the idea of nature and thereby food as sacred. Formal
elements and surface treatments often reference nature or sacred
geometry, which has its roots in the study of nature and the
mathematical principles which govern it. There is direct reference to
architectural and decorative elements of sacred spaces such as mosques,
churches or temples. All of these references seek to create the same
reverence for nature and food as one would have within a sacred space.
If we honored and revered nature as sacred, acts of growing, preparing
and consuming food would thus be ritual.</span></span></span></i></div>

very nature wood firing embodies and reaffirms the ideas of nature,
environment, history, ritual and community held within the work. The
process incorporates experimentation, skillfulness, knowledge and an
intimacy over time. I use wood firing as a way to create natural,
organic surfaces. The atmospheric effects often blur and obscure
intended surface work which mimics the distance and obscurity found in
the connections we have with our nourishment today." - Amanda Bury</span></span></span></i></div>

<b>About Walter Ostrom, CM and Jordan McDonald:</b></div>
<b>Walter Ostrom, CM<br />
</b><br />
<i>Emeritus Professor Ceramics NSCAD</i><br />
Walter Ostrom, C.M. was recently appointed Professor Emeritus of
Ceramics at NSCAD University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. In1997, he
was awarded an Honorary Professorship at the Jingdezhen Ceramics
Institute in Jingdezhen, Jianxi Province, People’s Republic of China. An
outstanding educator, he is committed to Craft practice and theory.<br />
Walter is regarded internationally and in Canada as a technical and
academic expert in low-fire maiolica, an ancient ceramic technique that
he has personally tailored through innovations and decorative methods to
reflect the geography of the places where he has lived, whether Nova
Scotia or the Far East. His body of work has developed across many
aspects of ceramics in the span of a nearly 50-year career, from
experiments in high conceptualism in the 1970s to a contemporary focus
on the exploration of the vast history, hybridization and social
foundation of ceramics.<br />
He has extensively exhibited and lectured internationally. His work
has appeared in numerous books and periodicals. His work has been
collected by many public collections, including the Museum of
Civilization, Ottawa, the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, Halifax, the
Victoria and Albert Museum, London, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.<br />
On February 5th, 2007, he was invested into the Order of Canada. In
November 2008 he was given the Portia White Award in recognition of his
leading contribution to the arts in Nova Scotia. In 2014 he was
appointed a Regis Master at the Northern Clay Center in Minneapolis, MN.<br />
<br />
<b>Jordan McDonald<br />
</b><br />
Jordan McDonald is currently a Resident Artist at The Clay Studio in
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Jordan grew up in the suburbs of Toronto
where he first studied ceramics at Sheridan College in Oakville,
Ontario. He received his BFA from the Nova Scotia College of Art and
Design in Halifax, Nova Scotia in 2009. He then attended the New York
State College of Ceramics at Alfred University in Alfred, New York,
where he received his MFA in 2011.<br />
Among other awards and recognition, in 2014 Jordan was nominated for
the RBC Emerging Artist Award, and received the Recommendation Prize at
the Taiwan Ceramic Biennial in 2016. His work can be found in noteworthy
private and public collections, including the Gardiner Museum in
Toronto and the Yingge Ceramics Museum in Taipei, Taiwan.<br />
Jordan is currently an Adjunct Professor at the Maryland Institute
College of Art (MICA). He has also taught ceramics at the Tyler School
of Art, Temple University in Philadelphia and the Nova Scotia College of
Art and Design in Halifax.<br />
