Please join us for a ceramics demonstration by Wesley T. Brown on Friday, Sept. 27, from 10:30 am to 12 pm and 1 pm to 3 pm in 122 Riley Hall. Afterward, Brown will lecture on his works at 4 pm in 200 Riley Hall.

I create work to capture both physicality and dynamism.

I act upon the clay with passion to create works that memorialize struggle, trial, and triumph. Using the malleability and immediacy inherent to clay I build my work in an uninhibited practice. I want my work to capture an ethos familiar with hardship possessing a dignity and reverence found through a resoluteness to continue.

I have a schooling in the making of functional wares and sculpture and have worked and studied as an artist in such places as Indiana, North Carolina, and Jingdezhen, China. I hold an Associate of Art from Sinclair Community College, a Bachelor of Fine Art from Bowling Green State University, and a Master of Fine Arts from Indiana University.
