Kandy
Gibson is a utilitarian potter. She creates pots that are visually
pleasing and unique in character, but also useful in everyday life. Each
piece of stoneware pottery created reflects her enjoyment for throwing,
carving, sketching, embellishing, creating and using. She enjoys creating
each piece with its own unique character and personality, whether Kandy changes a spout,
handle, foot, rim, glaze color or decorative element Most of her
pieces are wheel thrown, but some are hand built. She enjoys making
pieces that are hand carved, or altered in some way. The forms Kandy makes are usually
organic in nature, which stems from her love of balance observed in nature, and
her personal preference for a fluid line. Kandy’s inspirations for
surfaces come from patterns in fabric, paintings, nature and historic dish
ware pottery.
