ArtistJackson Shanercreates pottery that borders on terrifying.
His surreal vessels appear as the keeper of souls, and those souls are trying to escape.
(The pots, after all, are strong enough to contain the force of these beings.)
The resulting pieces are frightening yet thought-provoking and invite us to consider who and what is inside.
The inspiration for Shaners work lies in classical sculpture, contemporary ceramics, fantasy, and horror.
The vessels, a combination of wheel-throwing and sculpture, have a double meaning.
They hold physical objects as well as the intangible.
Shaner’s primary interest lies in what we cannot see.
Shaner pours himself into every part of the process.
Although the work is personal, the viewer is an important component.
Shaner sells his work on hisInstagramandEtsy.
