SUMMARY:Hard and Soft: Contrasts in Nature Expressed Through Clay ELIZABETH SHRIVER
DESCRIPTION:LOCATED IN SWEENEY GALLERY \nFrom Elizabeth Shriver:\nI work with clay to create an array of graceful\, organic forms. These pieces are\nconstructed using a combination of hand-building methods such as slab-building\, coiling\,\npinching\, and forming with molds. Rarely relying on glaze\, I use textures\, stains\, and\ncolored clay to add visual and tactile interest. I am drawn toward neutral earth tones\, and\nmy work reflects the natural landscape\, plant\, and undersea life that are my inspiration.\nThe curving lines of nature inherent in my work generate an illusion of movement\, giving\neach piece an almost lifelike quality. A successful piece is one that begs to be touched as\nwell as explored visually. \n\nI am a native Iowan and a 1987 graduate of the University of Iowa. My interest in art\nbegan during my childhood\, when I would often spend my free time painting and\ndrawing. My focus turned to clay in 1985\, when my I took my first course at the University of\nIowa Ceramics Department. I became fascinated with the malleable properties of clay\,\nand the sculptural possibilities inherent in the medium. Though I was majoring in\npsychology rather than art\, my newfound interest led me to continue on through all four\nsemesters of undergraduate studio ceramics. \n\nAs I maintained my interest in ceramics into my adult life\, I set up my own studio where I\ncould hone my skills and experiment with new forms. Over the years\, I have exhibited my\nceramic sculptures in galleries\, and in both solo and group exhibitions throughout the USA.\nMost recently\, I’ve enjoyed participating in juried exhibitions exploring themes of nature or\n“biomorphism.” \nhttps://www.elizabethshriverceramics.com/
