Whitney's glass-infused pottery process begins with
commonly used, traditional pottery techniques. The
addition of kiln melted, broken bits of recycled glass
make the process unique. It sounds simple yet the
result is brilliantly different.
The
inherent problems associated with combining the two
mediums pose many physical challenges to the structural
integrity of the pieces. The result of the process
is a sparkling depth of color, texture, and unique
crackle glass surface; it's a delicate balance between
form and function.
The
challenges have not stopped Paloma Pottery from pushing
forward and continuously trying to find new uses for
things that may otherwise be thrown away. Employing
economically responsible ideals to reduce, re-use,
and recycle as a mission, Paloma Pottery emerged in
Jan. 2000. "I was inspired to recycle glass within
my pottery and when I saw the results I knew I had
found my niche," says Whitney.
