KYM GARNDER ARTIST STATEMENT:
RESIN WALL WORK
My wall pieces are a reflection of my interest in foraging and food.
Creating wall dishes with found items; The arrangements are inspired by their environment inviting the viewer in. I draw inspiration for these arrangements from walks in nature and from creating in the kitchen.
Foraging asks us to tune into our environment and can be a way for us to feed ourselves. For me It is a meditation on the present, a chance to slow down and tune in, but it has also become a way to get creative in new ways in the kitchen. While on my foraging journey these last few years I have learned how to harvest and prepare or preserve a number of wild mushrooms.
Cooking food is a vital part of living, it can bring so much nourishment and creativity to our world. I have been cooking with and for others since I was little and I bring that energy to these creations while reflecting on the patterns and life cycles created in nature. I carefully collected, arranged and preserved these items to create these appetizing pieces.
PINCH POT WORK
I began pinch potting wares while I was at Red Lodge Clay Center in 2017. It was the first time since 2007 that I pinched a form and it was great to explore this simple method of making with all the knowledge I had gained since my first pinch pot. Surrounded by other skilled makers I gained insight into my aesthetic and process. I have continued to explore the possibilities, one pinch at a time.
