Circularity by Priya Thoresen

Circularity is an exhibition of ceramic sculptures. Using minimalist processes for maximum effect, Thoresen begins with the form of a circle or sphere as a generative structure for play and experimentation. These forms encourage viewers to consider size and scale from cellular and microscopic to the planetary.

Priya Thoresen was selected as a 2018 Ceramics Monthly Emerging Artist and has an MFA from Arizona State University in Tempe. She began working with clay as a functional potter at Berea College where she was involved with the school’s ceramic apprenticeship program, taught English in Japan, and participated in residencies and a post baccalaureate program before attending graduate school. Priya has exhibited work regionally and nationally in exhibitions including Red Lodge Clay Center and the San Angelo Art Museum’s Ceramics Biennial. Priya currently lives in Minneapolis where she keeps a busy teaching schedule with classes at Northern Clay Center, the University of Minnesota, Saint Cloud State, and Concordia Saint Paul.
