Josephine Mette Larsen and Ruth Easterbrook Bowl

25" D

Through the collaboration of Resident Artists Josephine Mette Larsen and Ruth Easterbrook this gorgeous statement bowl was created. Exemplifying the best of both artists with Larsen's immaculate attention to building and form and Easterbrook's astounding glaze and pattern work.

Josephine Mette Larsen is a Danish-American ceramicist, born and raised in the U.S. to a mother and father who immigrated from Denmark in the 90s. The specific context of Denmark, however, has been instrumental in the establishment of her artistic identity as it carries a long history of high quality craft and design. At the forefront of her practice is keen attention to form, shape, line, and space - fundamental yet instrumental notions from which my hypotheses derive.

Ruth Easterbrook was born in Redwood Valley, California growing up with the hills as her playground. She graduated from Syracuse University with a BFA in ceramics in 2007. In 2014 she began focusing on her career starting with a spring concentration class at Penland School of Craft (NC) and then spending extended time at Anderson Ranch Arts Center (CO) In 2019 Ruth earned her MFA in ceramics at Alfred University. Ruth aims for her pottery to be an active participant in the coming together of people, sharing, and the enjoyment of food. She designs her works with their primary functionality in mind using a range of techniques for each piece, from hand building and throwing on the wheel to mapping out her floral motifs with glazes to create surfaces with textures movement.
