Episode 8: Jenn Angell
This episode features a conversation with host, Rhonda Willers, and guest, Jenn Angell. Jenn is an artist, glaze technician at a small handmade ceramic tile company, and a manager of a community clay studio.
We talk about how science theory becomes science in practice through her clay and glaze work. She also shares how it can be difficult to prioritize time in her studio despite her love of working with clay. And how the pandemic era has taken a lot of mental energy away from her creativity.
As an introvert Jenn shares how she hopes her art connects with people and the importance of that connection through her art because human to human connection often takes more time for her to develop.
