509: Fund Drive: Brian Chen on the anatomy of his forms

Today on the show I talk with Brian Chen. He makes sculptural and
functional forms that reference architecture and biomechanics. In
our interview we talk about how a tennis injury led him to study
anatomy, creating sculptures that nest within themselves, and
refining a form through repetition. To see examples of his work
visit www.brianchenpottery.com.
