VENUE 40 - Roslin Pottery, 30 Waverley Place
Fun, Political & Emotional Pottery
Sarah Keer-Keer of Rosin Pottery has always made things: fine art, engagement events, science festivals and now pottery. Makings things is her attempt to reconstitute the world, to heal, repair, to create equity, to share power and to share beauty.
The last 6 months she has been working with a group of friendly potters firing a community woodfiring kiln in Forfar. She has earned so much, had fun with good people, started mixing her own glazes and her pottery has taken a rustic turn.
Sarah is inspired by all the good things around her: she is surrounded by nature and beauty, but also love, community and people carrying themselves with compassion through hard times.
Sarah has PTSD, and pottery is grounding and calming, even when everything else is difficult, pottery is her beautiful island.
