Willi Singleton creates naturally glazed wood fired pottery from using locally sourced materials. He serves as artist-in-residence at Cedar Crest College. His kiln, built into a hillside, was created in 1987 at his studio in Kempton, PA. As an artist he strives to connect his pottery with place, a practice inspired by his teachers, Shigeyoshi and Tansō Ichino in Tamba, Japan, and Tappo Narui in Mashiko, Japan, where he apprenticed in the 1980s. He will be discussing his work and how a sense of place informs his design.
