My name is Jenny Weber and I am currently a working artist in Minneapolis, MN. I am a full time production slip caster at a small production pottery in Northeast Minneapolis and recently have started my own studio practice.
I never seem to know what I’m doing with my life or why I’m doing it until years later. My work looks to the past for inspiration, pulling the raw unfiltered nuggets of truth forward to be faced, analyzed, and finally embraced. Then I push clay around until I can show others what those nuggets look like, with the hope to make them feel and learn just as I had.
I use to say I was a warrior for those who never wanted to grow up. As the years have gone by, I have realized that it is something you can not fight. It is inevitable that I keep growing. I become a better person from each wave that life throws over me. I hope to connect with people navigating these waves through my art because we need one another to keep from drowning. It is the passion for life that brings us back to the surface, and it is my passion for clay that makes me express these experiences in a physical form.
