A beautiful look into the work of ceramicist Sue Paraskeva (video)

I’ve become recently enamored with ceramics, dreaming of creating perfect little vessels with which to litter around my apartment. Being a web designer by trade and running a blog I live in an extremely ephemeral world, mostly made up of zeroes and ones. So seeing Sue Paraskeva, who to me seems like an expert class ceramicist, the romantic notion of making bowls and cups all day in my ranch house burns brightly.

The video was created by Jamie Isbell who’s done an incredible job of capturing the spirit and approach Sue takes when creating her pieces. The way Jamie has managed to capture the details is nearly zen-like. She gets so close to the process you can clearly see Sue’s fingerprints, which is absolutely amazing. This is probably one of my favorite videos of the last few years, but maybe that’s because this is where my head is currently at.
