ARBUCKLE, LINDA
FLORIDA
FLORIDA
The functional vessel as an art object provides personal experiences through use in one’s daily life. Line, color, gesture, and the lure of materiality articulate the value of indulgence and the transience of (plant) life. The alchemy that transforms common terracotta clay into an object that speaks in a domestic setting points the way toward parallel transformations possible in the observed moments of personal life.
Arbuckle has taught workshops at many venues across the U.S. and in several international locations. University of Florida has recognized her research with Graduate Research Professorship and Teaching Improvement awards. Activities include a one-month residency in the People’s Republic of China awarded by the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts, as well as a return there to present for a joint Chinese-US symposium on ceramics education, a chapter-length feature in The Penland Book of Ceramics: Master Classes in Ceramic Techniques, and a feature in Earthenware Masters, Matthias Ostermann, and service as a juror of an NCECA Clay National biennial show. Arbuckle has received a National Endowment for the Arts Individual Artist’s Fellowship, as well as State of Florida Artist’s Fellowship awards. The tradition and interpretation of the functional vessel bring experiences through the functional art object into one's daily life. Line, color, gesture and the lure of materiality articulate the value of indulgence and the transience of (plant) life. The alchemy that transforms common terracotta clay into an object that speaks in a domestic setting points the way toward parallel transformations possible in the observed moments of personal life.
