When we think of pottery, we often have the image of a coffee mug or round bowl in our minds. Beyond the Wheel is a display of works by artist Laura Giesbrecht, in which the wheel is only a starting point for the vessel. Thrown and altered, as well as hand built works will demonstrate that while the potter’s wheel may have been the most important invention in pottery, it does not define the art of clay.
