395: Greg Payce on harnessing the negative space between objects to create images

Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have
an interview with Greg Payce. He often creates images that
reference the human figure by shaping the negative space between
his ceramic vessels. In our interview we talk about the
remediation of objects into images, techniques for throwing large
precise vessels, and how lighting can accentuate the illusions in
his work. For more information follow Greg on IG at @gregpayce.
