THIS WEEK’S PICKS:
Matthew Krousey
Using durable stoneware clays on the potter’s wheel, Matthew Krousey creates functional, food safe art, decorated with abstract landscapes and native Minnesota species. The warmth of each piece comes from using the traditional german style of salt firing.
Fair Anita
Fair Anita is a Minnesota based social enterprise employing 8,000 woman artists across 9 countries to create fair trade accessories. Their team of female entrepreneurs uses recycled and upcycled materials when creating their products.
Emily Madland
Through forging, soldering, hammering, stone-setting, Emily Madland creates beautiful wearables by hand in her South Minneapolis studio. Each piece uses foraged sterling silver and gemstones, as well as other local, upcycled, fair trade materials whenever possible to create gemstone jewelry. Every piece is as unique as the individual stone and metal used to create it!
