Diana Chamberlain

I work in porcelain and handbuild. I mix my own glazes and fire in an electric kiln. I choose to work in porcelain for its fineness and malleability and willingness to transform. My fine art training was at Central St. Martin's School of Art, London, and Pratt Institute, Brooklyn. I am a former Guild Member of Silvermine Guild of Artists in New Canaan, CT, and a former Associate Artist at the Torpedo Factory in Alexandria, VA, and The Clay Studio in Philadelphia. I currently work out of my home studio in Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia. A consistent theme in my work is home and community in co-existence with nature. I am drawn to images that relate to communal life in a city that is frequently encroached on by nature. Ongoing series are dress vases, pieces that relate to dance and the figure in space; and explorations into the form of the teapot. I like that teapots are iconic objects in many cultures and have a human aspect; they relate to shared experiences and social ritual. My work has been exhibited nationally and is in private collections in the United States and overseas.
