Using pinched slabs of porcelain, DeArmond carves into the surface of the clay and fills the lines with colored slip. She is inspired by the beauty of wild plants and animals in the Minneapolis parks and natural areas near where she lives. DeArmond is fascinated by the connections and cycles of life made by insects, birds, and plants, and how humans can impact the environment and the tiny lives around us.

Kristen Cliffel

Kristen Cliffel received her BFA from the Cleveland Institute of Art in Cleveland, Ohio. Identifying as both a wife and a mother, Cliffel engages themes of domestic mythology through her ceramic practice. Central to her exploration is the unfolding of intimate relationships and the fear, hope, belonging, security, and connection associated with them. Cliffel uses visual metaphors and unexpected combinations of sculpted objects to dissect these domestic fairytales and expose their prescribed notions of happiness, fulfillment, and success. The bird is a form returned to throughout her body of work, both wearable and sculptural.
