Merle Slyhoff Pottery
Webmaster2022-04-19T20:30:48+00:00I began my personal exploration in clay over 25 years ago when my young son was taking a clay class. He ventured off into other creative avenues, but my love of mud continues to be a source of enjoyment and challenges. I experience an inherent joy and relaxation in taking a lump of clay, wedging it, throwing it on the wheel, adding texture and dimension and then waiting for the bisque piece to come out of the kiln. The last step, glazing, turns that initial lump of clay into a final piece of art. I create hand-thrown functional clay pieces.
Clay + Heat + Glaze = Pottery; But the missing piece that brings it to life is The Potter -Merle Slyhoff
Whether it is a mug, a bowl, a vase or a platter I work the clay to maintain a simplicity of design while considering the ergonomics of use. My design aesthetic is minimalist however a fascination with texture and surface design enables me to enhance the simplicity through carvings, texture work and piercings that allow the glazes to intensify the final work. Running a one-woman operation, I design and create my work at my Glenside, PA studio, always striving to create pieces that brings joy to the user.
