These digital images were made using a large flatbed scanner. I took different materials including paper, magazine pages, leaves, tissues, and hands and arranged them on the scanner. I set the scanning speed very slow and as the light would pass below the objects I would move them strategically. The images you see are exactly what was scanned in, no further manipulation or photoshop.
This series explores the Krieble Ceramics Center, the ceramics studio I was working in during undergrad, and how its individual elements played into my experience of it as a whole. Some of the subject matter is esoteric for the ceramics community and some is universally understood. The title refers to all the other aspects of a studio that contribute to the creation of art rather than the specific medium itself, in this case clay.
