"Some teachers set off near miracles with their students. One of these is Alice Federico. I attended one of her workshops, and Alice gave her all to every attendee. She is 100% a potter." “Her slender, stately ceramic vases…with wide lips, long necks and feet, and curved, swelling bellies – occupy that realm between functional and sculptural.” Read "Working in Montana with Japanese-style wood-fired kilns, Federico has produced variations on amphora shapes, some built of several thrown pieces to produce tall vases that bring to mind the figures of haniwa ceramics – and sometimes Noguchi's work in Japan." |
