    Heather Ossandon creates wood-fired ceramics that reflect her travels through Asia, Central America, Europe and the United States - exploring and researching pottery and artisan ways. These experiences have cultivated techniques and methods that are incorporated into her studio practice. Focusing on functional pottery, and sculptural still lifes; traditional practices and everyday objects are the spotlight of her work. Ossandon operates HEOS Ceramics in Baltimore, MD and is a Professor of Art at Prince George’s Community College.

    "Utilitarian objects inscribe the ritual of the everyday, both in my life and in others. My work uses functional ceramics as a vehicle in the conversation on art and its social applications. I am interested in both the specificity of material, as well as the process in which the objects are made."
