- Adena, OH, United States
- Benjamin, who is from the Pacific coast of Oregon, creates wood-fired pottery with a steady, focused patience resonating of his home. He was trained to search out and incorporate local materials into all aspects of the process of making his work. Wood-fired work involves a long, intense process and originated in Korea, Japan and China. The last 50 years has seen a new movement in the western areas to practice this very old art form with a new voice. Locally, there is an abundance of clay and wood. Since moving to the area, he has been intrigued by the faded presence of the old pottery industries along the Ohio River and in the hills.

Congratulations on completion. I look forward to helping you fire! Is it typical to name your kiln? I look forward to hearing the meaning of Ramsey Anagama.
