About Me
| Introduction | Hi! I’m Cass. I run Bad Mood Studio with my sister, Maia, in SK, Canada. I’ve done ceramics on and off with my sister for the last four or so years. The pandemic has shaken loose the rigidity of working only in a retail job for the rest of my natural life. I am hoping to work my ‘bill-paying’ job less, and create and sell ceramics more.
|
| What I Love about Ceramics | I love the flexibility and the patience needed |
| How I started with ceramics | My sister introduced me <3 |
| What inspires me | spooks Cats, weirdo feral creatures plant life, flowers
|
| What I'm working on at the moment | I’m currently finishing active treatment for breast cancer, so I’ve been slowly rebuilding my art practice and hopefully kick off into high gear with ceramics again! Check your chest every month! <3 |
| My Artist Statement | My work involves a mix of whimsy and supernatural, folkloric elements; I am currently working on some harpy designs on plates and wall hangings, as a cathartic means of working through cancer treatment. |
