Collection: Brooks Oliver

The ambition of Brooks Oliver's work is to reimagine and reinterpret the familiar functional vessel.  By isolating, altering, and exploiting the necessary components of a vessel, Oliver attempts to provide new visions of utilitarian ceramic wares.

His work inherently blurs the boundaries between craft, design, industry, and technology as he is inspired by the charged grey areas between these binaries.  By marrying the production techniques of CAD software and rapid prototyping technologies with the creation techniques of the hand, a unique dialog can be formed between the digital and clay that ultimately influences both ways of making.
