Mugshot Monday with Scott Jennings
As ceramic artists, we often struggle and strive to make pieces that are perfectly centered, round in every way. San Francisco based ceramic artist Scott Jennings celebrates the beauty that can come from "off-centeredness". He intentionally creating pieces that undulate and bulge in a way that suggests constant movement and plasticity.“I choose to make pottery because of the excitement and satisfaction that I get from discovering new forms. I am interested in utilitarian vessels and find that they provide endless avenues to explore form and surface design. Each piece that I make stands in stark contrast to the manufactured goods of the world around us; they are imperfect, irregular, and not exactly repeatable. I strive to make pieces that are visually stunning and that have friendly tactile qualities. Ultimately I hope that the user contemplates how ceramics with unique characteristics can fit into and enhance their daily routines.” - Scott Jennings
