Mike Weber
Mike Weber has been working in clay for nearly forty years, and has been wood-firing his work most of that time. Currently, Weber lives and works at his forest studio in northern Wisconsin. He has created and exhibited his work in many countries, including Japan.
“I have always related to the Japanese culture and have been inspired by some of the potters there. In my own work I try to let the clay speak during the creative process allowing for things to happen which adds to its freshness, it’s individuality. My work is fired in an anagama kiln I call Rocketman. This type of firing helps me achieve the effects my pieces demand. I try to keep taking chances with energy and passion, allowing the pieces to ‘become’ while relying on the potential of the natural interaction of the kiln; the shifting, partial cracking, accumulation of natural ash in unexpected ways.” Mike Weber |
