The history of civilization is recorded in scraps of fiber and on shards of pottery. As a weaver and a potter, Susan Phillips is inspired by the beauty and the ingenuity of the everyday objects that our ancestors created under extraordinarily difficult conditions. She feels a strong connection to their struggles to create beauty in very functional pieces. She hopes that future potters will find a touch of beauty and inspiration from her work.
