483: Renata Cassiano on literature, portals, and intuition
Today on the show I talk with Renata Cassiano. Her ceramic sculptures are non-objective accumulations often dealing with ideas of connection and translation. In our interview we talk about reusing older work to create new forms, using a concrete saw to shape fired ceramics, and the influence of literature on her understanding of self and art. Cassiano is currently the Visiting Assistant Professor of Art at the University of Arkansas School of Art. To see examples of her work visit www.renatacassiano.com.
