Upcoming Exhibitions

BETH
CAVENER STICHTER
THE WILDNESS WITHIN

Beth Cavener Stichter is known for her dynamic, emotionally-charged animal and human figures. Participants will experience Beth’s unusual method of working, starting with a solid mass of clay and then hollowing each part of the sculpture down to the skin before reassembling the entire piece. Through demonstrations and slide presentations, Beth will cover a range of practical technical information about her hand-building methods. This five-day workshop is intended to give participants a glimpse into how one can tackle elements of gesture and expression with subtle shifts in line and form, how we transfer ideas and meaning visually. Work will be bisqued. Basic hand-building skills are recommended.

Beth is currently a full-time professional studio artist. She received her BA from Haverford College and her MFA from Ohio State University. She was awarded the American Craft Council’s Emerging Artist Fellowship in 2004 and has been an Artist-in-Residence at the Clay Studio in Philadelphia and the Archie Bray Foundation in Helena, MT. She has exhibited nationally and has taught numerous workshops.
