ARTIST STATEMENT

Martha Grover is a functional potter, living in Bethel, Maine, creating thrown and altered porcelain pieces. She states, “I seek to enhance the experience of interacting with functional objects. I work toward creating a sense of elegance for the user while in contact with each porcelain piece. Reminiscent of orchids, flowing dresses, and the body, the work has a sense of familiarity and preciousness.
