color theory

 The color wheel  deconstructed through a post-modern lens.

“Experience”: it comes from the Latin word experiri, which means "to test" or "to prove," and from the Latin word periri, which means "peril" and "danger," and also from the Indo-European root per, which means “going across.” So experience means “going across danger.” (Doris Salcedo)

Ocean Springs Mississippi to Mobile Alabama

George Ohr, the mad potter of Biloxi, 'the greatest art potter on earth'.  Completely forgotten for 60 years until someone found a bunch of his pieces stored away in an old house. 

 Walter Anderson, part of Shearwater Pottery, liked to go out on the islands for weeks at a time by himself. And then hide away in a room back in Ocean Springs, where he painted the walls.  No one was allowed to go in the room.

 Walter Anderson painted ceramics in the Walter Anderson Museum, Ocean Springs, Mississippi. He worked at Shearwater with his brothers, sometimes he would go off the deep end, like the boat, and sometimes he just had to sleep under a boat on the island and be with the animals.
