Kim Cutler Ceramics
When Kim is not art-making, she is not happy. Inspired by the Asian aesthetic and the play book of the architect, she enjoys the challenge of building new vessels from shapes she cuts from slab. She makes a vessel over and over until she finds a perfect form with elegant proportions. The exploration process is exciting and time-consuming but definitely worth the time invested.
Kim begins with sketches inspired by something she has seen or imagined. She creates a 3-D version of her idea using pieces of stiff slab. A trial and error process follows until the form is "right" in Kim's opinion. When a pot is worthy of repeating, she creates a template which can be used again. To enliven the surface of each piece, Kim decorates the slabs with slip and texture.
All Kim's formal training in ceramics took place in classes and workshops at the Worcester Center for Crafts in Worcester, MA. In college (BA) she studied art history and in graduate school (MAT) painting. Her career as a graphic designer certainly informed her design aesthetic. But the greatest contribution to her ceramic style came from working alone and making design choices in her studio.
Customer Reviews
Very well constructed. Sturdy and will be the perfect size for serving sauces.
Bought one to gift to my SIL (green leaf pattern). Decided I want to buy one for myself, too. Will do!
I needed a good dispenser of sauces for serving and wanted something artistic. This pitcher checked all boxes. It was small but large enough to handle sauces for individual self-serving at dinners with friends and family. It saved me from putting sauces on the side or in individual small bowls.
This one I liked and began using it a week later when i cooked a meal for friends. There were a total of 6 people and this worked for a fresh salsa I prepared. Not everyone used it, so nothing went to waste.
Then one day while at the market, I went by the flower section and some interesting flora caught my eye. I purchased some Baby Breath to add some cheer to a wintery season. Looking through my vases, I couldn't find one that would work. Then I spied the sauce pitcher with its beautiful green leaf pattern.
Perfect! I'm delighted I discovered two different purposes for this artful sauce pitcher. Thank you Kim Cutler.
