Make
Make gathers stories from the studio — reflections on process, materials, and the discipline of sustained practice. Through artist features, documentation, and essays, we look closely at how work is formed over time.
The focus is not the finished object, but the act of making itself.
Make: Centering Clay
In pottery, the moment a piece truly begins is not when clay touches the wheel — it’s when the clay finds balance beneath the maker’s hands.
Make: Form and Counter-Form
In drawing, what is left untouched is as deliberate as what is marked. Counter-form creates tension, depth, and balance. It asks the artist to see relationships rather than objects.
Make: Elements of Drawing
In this studio reflection, Leah Grear speaks to the foundational elements that shape visual language: line, shape, value, form, space, texture, and color.
