Ceramic Art Treasures: Nathan Craven
Nathan Craven is an ceramic installation artists. His work is very detailed and large. These cookie cutter like pieces of clay bring together an architectural structure that is powerful and elegant. I am a installation artist of ready-mades, and I am so inspirited by Craven's work. From his personal website his artists statement, "Most of my work is based on ceramics as building materials, specifically the brick, which has a long history of use as a unit of construction. The building of walls and floors, their placement, and the materials they are made from create varying spaces and determine our interactions within an architectural volume. Constructing porous walls and floors with my own versions of "bricks" I aim to define and clarify space in ways that draw attention to these otherwise unnoticed elements as well as to the spaces in which we dwell."
Nathan Craven is a great and valuable ceramicists in the art world, his work is inspirational to other artists, ceramicists, installationist and architectures.
He is a Ceramic Art Treasure!
