Artist Statement:
Kristin is inspired by the boreal forest, the painted lines decorating the vessels in this collection bring to mind mycelia, root systems, and tree branches. Each vessel tells its own story and makes reference to the fragility of our natural ecosystems. She pairs her stoneware vessels with watercolour landscapes created during a winter artist residency in the boreal taiga of Finland. Each day she set out on a pre-dawn hike through nearby forests and fields. This routine of wandering—not only physically but also metaphorically into memory and imagination—was a vital part of her creative process. Her watercolours and ceramics draw on this experience as well as her connection to the boreal forests in her home province of Alberta.
