Jeanne Henry. Ceramic world views… made in Oregon.
January 24, 2011
There’s something captivating about the work of Oregon artist Jeanne Henry that
draws you into her ceramics with a questioning and curious eye. This beautiful piece
entitled Salmon Dream, leads the way into her work quite nicely.
After 25 years of being a functional potter, making bowls etc she turned her hand to reproducing 3-D
ceramic pieces and views from her travels that appealed and inspired.
I find her work quite unique and visually inspiring in it’s portrayal of a french street or mexican house,
and you feel like you’ve almost been to those places with her.
Great to see that an established maker is still happy to transform her style and create something totally
fresh and new after 25 years. Well done Jeanne.
