COURTESY OF THE ARTIST

Canadian ceramist and writer Carole Epp holds an MFA in ceramics from the Australian National University. She currently lives in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan where she maintains a studio and teaches at a local potters’ guild. She was recently visiting artist at Red Deer College in Alberta. She produces two distinct bodies of work comprising sculptural and functional objects. Her sculptural work incorporates the production of collectible figurines whose traditional genre is subverted by revealing a more truthful representation of behavior and morality in contemporary society. An analysis of consumer culture is unveiled and dialogue is presented regarding the personal relationship one has with global events and politics. Epp’s work has been exhibited in Canada, Australia, Scotland and the United States. Her artwork and writing have also been published on the web and in The Journal of Australian Ceramics, Ceramics Art and Perception, Ceramics Monthly and Interpreting Ceramics.
