473: Linda Sikora on the concepts of service, storage, and display

Today on the show we have the first in a two-part interview with
renowned ceramic artist and educator Linda Sikora. We talk about
growing up in Canada, her path to being a potter, and how the
concepts of service, storage, and display shaped her recent
exhibition Darkening Ground at Ferrin Contemporary. Linda has
been teaching at Alfred University since 1997 and has been an
integral part of educating a generation of artists at the
institution. To find out more visit www.lindasikora.com.
