Ceramic Sculpture 2

Joseph Sand (b. 1982, Austin, MN) graduated from Austin High School in 2001. He trained as a
sculptor at the University of Minnesota, receiving a B.F.A. with honors in 2006. During his
undergraduate courses, he studied art for one year in Italy, followed by another year in England,
after receiving a very competitive, college­wide scholarship. While in England, he worked
alongside many prolific potters, including Svend Bayer and Clive Bowen, which heavily
influenced his direction as an artist, taking up functional pottery as a means of personal
expression.

He completed a three ­year and a half year apprenticeship with Mark Hewitt in 2009 and now
resides in Randleman, North Carolina. Joseph built a 40 foot anagama kiln and makes functional
and sculptural ceramics full­time. He fires his large, wood­fired kiln three times a year, and the
majority of his work is sold on his property during kiln opening sales. Joseph's work is also
represented in several galleries across the United States.
His functional work combines the styles of traditional, Southern alkaline glazeware and East
Asian design, among others.
