“I’ve always been interested in both image and object, and I find joy in pottery by blending the two, treating the ceramic form as an intimate canvas. I meticulously paint and carve every surface of my hand-built forms with layered illustrations of wildlife juxtaposed with playful — sometimes vulnerable — text.” — Milo Berezin

Raised in the woods of rural Alaska, Milo Berezin moved to Pittsburgh to study sculpture and printmaking. The son of a production potter, he rediscovered the joy of clay while working as an arts administrator and teaching artist at a community ceramics nonprofit.
