516: Rhonda Willers on embracing creative growth

Rhonda Willers uses functional pottery, sculptural vessels, and
installation to focus on ideas of fragility and the passage of
time. In our interview we talk about her 2019 installation Alone
Together, her work in ceramics, and her book Terra Sigillata:
Contemporary Techniques. We also discuss her philosophy of
service work and her podcast The Artist in Me is Dead, which
traces creativity through the lives of makers.

Rhonda is one of many artists featured in my upcoming book The
Complete Guide to Low-Fire Glazes for Potters and Sculptors. The
book has its official release on September 10 and is now
available for pre-order.
