Arriving at the Arrowmont School without having suffered a crashing
headache from the visual cacophony that is Pigeon Forge can be quite a
relief. An oasis surrounded by the ever-bustling Gatlinburg, Arrowmont’s
14-acre property on the Parkway is home to a highly esteemed arts and
crafts center that, in turn, serves as an annual home for groups of
artists-in-residence. Hosting such artists each year since 1991, the
school presents the culmination of their efforts in an exhibition every
spring.<br />
<br />
The 2014 show, <em>Five Lines</em>, which runs through May 9, is
memorable. It features an impressive collection of sculpture and other
objects, drawings, and textile art by Lynn Batchelder, H.P. Bloomer,
Rachel K. Garceau, Tally Locke, and Rena Wood, Arrowmont’s visiting
artists and also the participants in the school’s booth at the Dogwood
Arts Festival’s Art Fair on Market Square this weekend.<br />
<br />
People familiar with the Arrowmont School likely know its history.
The school was established approximately a century ago by the Pi Beta
Phi women’s organization as a “settlement school,” in response to the
lack of formal public education in the region. Arrowmont initiated, in
conjunction with the University of Tennessee, a summer art program
beginning in 1945. Inspired by a distinctive tradition of local crafts,
the program eventually expanded to offer year-round classes.<br />
<br />
Facilities once used for settlement school purposes are now studios
and classrooms for workshops; they include a narrow but spacious
exhibition area with clerestory windows incorporating mountain light
into the overall viewing experience. In <em>Five Lines</em>, various
pieces interspersed throughout the gallery in a mixed display, rather
than separated according to artist, reflect what gallery manager
Stefanie Gerber Darr has called “a palpable shared energy” between this
past year’s artists-in-residence. Whatever the configuration of
art—whether or not the work is wall-mounted, on pedestals, occupying
floor space, or ceiling-hung—the offerings in <em>Five Lines</em> signal a departure from what visitors to Arrowmont might expect.<br />
<br />
For instance, however predictable his medium seems at Arrowmont, H.P.
Bloomer creates ceramics that would give your grandmother goose bumps.
In addition to functionality, his predominantly porcelain work (i.e.,
bowls, vases, lidded jars, etc.) represents a satisfying marriage of
form, glaze, and applied image. The Texas-bred Bloomer identifies
20th-century modernism as an influence, but his pared-down,
International Style and Bauhaus school-inspired fare comes with a twist:
exuberant, albeit often understated, color. Alongside other
simultaneously earthy and bold pieces are his 16 dinner plates, mounted
together on a single wall.<br />
<br />
Employing porcelain in an entirely different way, New
Hampshire-educated Rachel K. Garceau is primarily an installation
artist. In <em>Five Lines</em>, work fitting that description is both
present and documented—that is, seen in photographs of objects occupying
nearby outdoor locations. By removing portions of white slip from the
surfaces of pillow-shaped and larger wedge-like forms prior to firing,
Garceau produces surface imagery, frequently of leaves and chain-link
fencing.<br />
Garceau’s piece “never spoken” transforms porcelain into something
looking like the tufted vinyl upholstery found in classic cars. Its
long, 2-foot-wide black-and-white swath composed of ceramic “bricks”
laid end to end extends approximately eight feet up a partition wall.
One can’t help but be reminded of a piano keyboard, the differing
lengths of ceramic sections producing a visual rhythm of sorts.<br />
<br />
Also large scale is Rena Wood’s installation with lace and felt
titled “Fabricated Perspective.” About eight feet wide and 10 feet high,
her black “curtain” has round elements positioned within cascading
threads, the ends of which, pooling onto the gallery floor, form curls
echoing circular shapes above. Smaller wall hangings, at times in the
form of runners, utilize vintage tablecloths and other household
textiles. Some pieces feature purple and blue-gray embroidery on raw
silk, grommets, or both feathery and muscular sewn-together sections.
The central portion of Wood’s nine-part, quilt-like “Bridge” is a
mandala of sorts that might allude to domestic enlightenment.<br />
<br />
Michigander Lynn Batchelder’s combining of linear drawings and
related metal objects sets her work apart. Balancing intricate ink
markings on paper that seem every bit as labor-intensive as Wood’s art
are simple three-dimensional pieces in copper and sterling silver. The
quirky “Inlet Brooches,” composed of silver, have a matte surface, and
in one instance, a multitude of small holes resembling a man’s whiskered
skin. Batchelder has described trying to capture “small moments of
contrast where control and imperfection collide,” an aim embodied by
bottomless pouches suspended from chains—the non-functional parading as
useful.<br />
<br />
Finally, wood, another material associated with crafts, dominates
work by Tally Locke. Be it a pedestal-mounted pile of log ends capping
off dowels, a locally sourced black walnut table, or an assortment of
smooth bowls set into salvaged chunks of osage orange, maple, cherry, or
oak, Locke’s love for wood is obvious. And she, like her fellow
artists-in-residence, appears to possess the skill to do with it
whatever imagination allows.<br />

campus. Unfortunately I (HP) didn’t really get to spend as much time
conversing with all of the people who came for the forum as I would have
liked. The forums were loosely structured invitational gatherings which
allow the artists to work in a open format in tandem with each other.
The forums included a ceramics forum organized by former artist in residence <a href="http://jasonbigeburnett.com/home.html">Jason Burnett</a> as well as a textile and metals forum. I unfortunately did not get to
peak in on the metals forum but I did manage to snap a few photos of
fibers and ceramics.If you are ever invited to attend one of these they are a fantastic opportunity to not only experience Arrowmont and Gatlinburg during the winter and a great chance to make art and get feed back from your peers. Enjoy! -HP<br />

In October, I had an opportunity to work with Polish glass artist Barbara Idzikowska at the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, NY. We experimented with soft molding making materials in order to make molds off the body which will ultimately be used for glass casting. Follow this link to read more about Barbara and watch a video of the process:</div>

We wanted to add to that collection where it was lacking in certain areas (i.e. large cups!). Every cup we own is a coffee cup...but not for long! H.P. threw new cups, bowls, and plates and invited us to a decorating party in his studio where we got draw on them with the sgraffito process.

Our friend Emily Nickle, a former work study from this summer and Ceramics Instructor at The Kentucky School of Craft, just published a nice blog on her experience here as a work study this summer. There are lots of photos and she covers a wide spectrum of experiences from her stay here. You can read it at <a href="http://emilynickel.com/">EmilyNickel.com</a>. She talks a great deal about many of the workshops she was able to attend and others that were going on while she was here as well as her adventures off camps. Its a good read for any of those interested in what being a work study here with the Arrowmont family is like.<br />
<br />
I also wanted to share with those of you who do not follow me on any of my other online outlets what I am up to. As I am sure you saw last week we had <a href="http://www.rothshank.com/Justins_Art" target="_blank">Justin Rothsh</a><a href="http://www.rothshank.com/Justins_Art" target="_blank">ank</a>
here teaching a decaling workshop and since this was one of the items
that I was interested in pursuing during my residency I followed along. I
also had a firing this past weekend and was able to do a little decal
work on a hand full of those pieces. Here area few images from that
latest firing. <br />
You can also see more of my work at www.hpbloomer.com or www.bloomerpottery.wordpress.com<br />
Hope you enjoy!<br />

Its been nice to have students bringing the campus back to life. We had a small but great group of teachers and students this week. I spent a lot of time peaking in on Justin Rothshanks decal class but there was so much going on in all of the classes. Here are a few pics from this week.<br />

This is a time lapse I did of my unloading this week. This was my first firing in the Arrowmont Soda Kiln and while it was slightly uneven it was still a pretty good firing. Its nice to be pulling work out o f a soda kiln again. While I have enjoyed the ease of loading and firing gas or electric kilns I have missed the surfaces that the atmosphere imbues upon the work.<br />

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I've been busy getting work glazed and ready for loading into the soda kiln over the last week. Here is a clip of me glazing late into the night at light speed and another of wadding pots and loading the bottom shelf of the soda kiln here at Arrowmont. I will try to take another time lapse of the unloading and will be attempting to shoot all the work before taking it up to the Artist In Residence Open studio this Wednesday at 5pm. Hope to see some of you there.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

We worked on the layout and install with Stefanie, the new Gallery Coordinator here at Arrowmont, to put together what I think is a really great looking show! Once all the work was in place it was a lovely surprise to see how well everyone's pieces complimented one another. All of the pieces have a somewhat subdued or natural color palette which ties everything together. Here are some photos:</span><br />

Ashley Gilreath (2012 Resident Artist) had the opportunity to show her work in her grandfather's hometown at The Art of Food Exhibition. This is most fitting as Ashley's body of work consist of family history past down through the grow and heritage of food depicted in her metalsmithing. Member of her family were in attendance due to the Gilreath family reunion that same weekend.</div>

This exhibit will include both functional and sculptural ceramic works which will introduce viewers to the clay medium through new approaches to surface design, and innovative use of ancient techniques. Themes such as artistic borrowings from other media in contemporary craft and the importance of mentorship will also be explored.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px;"><br style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;" /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px;"><br style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;" /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px;"><br style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;" /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px;"><u style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><b style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;">Artist and mentor blurbs:</b></u></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px;"><br style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;" /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px;"><u style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;">Jason Burnett on mentor, and Arrowmont Instructor, Tom Bartel:</u></span><div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.2em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">

These are four of about 180 cups that were made during Arrowmont's AIR 20th Anniversary reunion earlier this month. Now when you come to Arrowmont, you can drink your coffee or tea out a real handmade mug. This project produced some knockout cups! Real gems, I tell you. It was difficult to pick four to photograph. I believe these selected lovelies were made in collaboration by Erin Castellan, Phil Haralam, Joe Gower, Jason Bige Burnett, Meagan Gumpert, and Bryan Hiveley. <br />
