246: Marty Fielding on the influence of Frank Gehry and postmodern architecture on his ceramic vessels

Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an
interview with Marty Fielding. His ceramic vessels live at the
scale of domestic pottery, but often feel monumental with their
architectural volumes and angles. In our interview we talk about
his love of Frank Gehry’s architecture, building up layers of
underglaze to create abstract fields of color, and how music has
shaped his creative practice. For more information on Marty visit

Handed Symposium at the Clay Lady Campus in Nashville, TN.
