"The objects I make exhibit a compositional preference for repetition over variety, and I position repeated elements in regular, metered fashion. A rhythm develops, with a cadence that promotes a rambling exploration of the form. I am captivated by the dialog between simplicity and complexity, which is a concept I endeavor to reflect in my work.
My work is composed to create pause. The objects I make are equal parts anthropological study and artistic endeavor, and incorporate an attempt to understand the world we live in, through making."

Arrowmont Instructor David Eichelberger crafted this black bowl with yellow and white highlights on rim during his 2022 National Workshop. Bright, stylish and striking - this bowl will make a wonderful dish for serving or displaying in your home.
