Samantha Dickie Sculpture and Installation

Heading out for summer to find the textures and natural vignettes that I love and so inform my work. Can’t wait to be deep in the wild. #canadianceramics #contemporaryart #canadiansculpture

Was supposed to be installing work at Touchstones Museum this week. Sadly, and not surprisingly, the show has been postponed until 2021 due to COVID. Super looking forward to the exhibition next year. In the meantime, I’m plugging away at a new hanging piece in my studio. #canadianceramicartist #installationartist #contemporaryartist

New carved and inlaid work that’s actually functional! A rare occasion for me and always reserved for the Fired Up show. Sad it had to be postponed this year.

Day 7 of posting for the Pottery Challenge. Thanks again to @trudygolley for bringing me into the mix. This smoke fired work was my first small hanging installation made in 2006 for an exhibition in Whitehorse, while chasing my 2 year old daughter. Now she’s driving me around at 16. The small installation now resides in a beautiful architects home in Kits Vancouver. Have been missing the Yukon. My last nomination is to @notyoureverydaymary who’s pots I so love from Victoria. Pass along the love for homemade clay pots and sculpture.

Day 6 of the Pottery Challenge. This image is of work from 2004 made in the Yukon. After the exhibition toured a few public galleries, we installed the sculptures on the rugged land in southern Yukon to winter for 6 months for a photo shoot I did with the Studio 204 artist collective that I was part of when I lived in Whitehorse. Miss the Yukon! I nominate Emily Woodruffe from Whitehorse to join the challenge to post pots and nominate Canadian potters for 7 days.
