Rebecca Schedl

In 2023 I went to Penland for the very first time. I sat on the wall on the way to the mess hall, talking to my mom on the phone and watching the clouds pass. They moved across the sky, and in my mind they were both beautiful in the moment and also a sign that no sky is ever fully free of the chance of rain. When I look back on my life, I see the connectedness. I wouldn’t be here without the connection to what came before. I have been poured into the mold that life gave me and little by little I have changed my shape and the world around me has changed my shape. In this process of connection, I have become more myself. When I look around me, I see a world of connections. My work seeks to connect with itself and the world around it, through the connection of clay to clay, clay to hand, and hand to clay. My work is not completed by fire, but by the continued act of touching clay to hand and hand to ceramic.
