About the Item

Glazed stoneware, wheel thrown with hand-built slabs, signed on the bottom by Dennis McLaughlin. 7' x 10" diameter McLaughlin’s artistic sensibility was influenced by his undergraduate and graduate ceramics professors, in particular undergraduate professor Gordon Dingman, whose work was similar to the work of Bernard Leach and Warren MacKenzie. McLaughlin combines this sensibility with the exploration of indigenous clays and glazes, producing work that is strong in form and delicate in surface. He favors stoneware clays, because of their potential for varied interactions with glazes, and ash glazes for their interplay with the clay. He is precise, efficient and fast, has a broad vocabulary of forms, and each is as fresh and fluid as if he’d made only one. Denny McLaughlin“I draw my inspiration from all work and traditions,” McLaughlin says when asked to define the sources of his artistic style. McLaughlin’s work is predominantly functional, mostly wheel-thrown or formed in molds he makes, and is decorated with slip trails, sprigs and glazes he creates. Although not process oriented, he enjoys direct involvement in process, and even built a wood-burning, climbing kiln as a graduate student.
