565: Sam Briegel on the connection between the vessel and the body

Sam Briegel layers slip cast, printed, and painted fabric patterns on elegant porcelain forms. In our interview we talk about the vessel as a metaphor for the body, the challenges of working with halloysite clays, and how her decorative process has become more refined over time. Sam will be presenting new work as part of this year's Princeton Pottery Festival happening May 2nd and 3rd 2026. www.samanthabriegel.com   Have you checked out the Tales from the Vault podcast feed?
