New Faces Bring New Forms
Twice a year, Baltimore Clayworks juries in new artists into the Lormina Salter Fellowship Program, the Artist in Residence Program and the Members Gallery. To date, Baltimore Clayworks has juried in 76 artists. The application process is quite competitive. The jury is comprised of Clayworks’ artists that judge the merit of artistic excellence, potential for growth, and professional fit.
Yoshi Fujii, the 2008–2009 Lormina Salter Fellowship Artist creates highly decorative and functional porcelain ware that brings a rich elegance to our community. While his work gracefully marries eastern and western aesthetics, it moves past the beautifully decorative and subliminally introduces high-class and seduction. Yoshi holds a BFA from University of Southern Mississippi and a MFA from Southern Illinois University Carbondale. As an apprenticing to a potter and through collaborating with artists, he honed his craft and skills. He teaches advance wheel classes at Baltimore Clayworks.

Sarah House joined Baltimore Clayworks as an instructor in June and an Artist in Residence in September. Her work offers a fresh perspective in porcelain and innovative dimensions in slip casting. Focusing primarily on installation and sculptural works, Sarah borrows mathematical patterns such as spirals and fractals. These vortexes she creates offer dialogue about celestial bodies, human existence, and infinite scale. She holds a BFA from Tyler School of Art and teaches Introduction to Clay and Basic Wheel at Baltimore Clayworks.
