Artist Statement

My name is Trevor Porterfield and I've been a ceramic artist for 15 years. I studied ceramics locally at Diablo Valley College before moving to Bozeman and completing the ceramics program at Montana State University. While living in Montana, I was fortunate enough to experience beautiful starry nights that I had never witnessed growing up in Central California. I was fascinated by the vastness of the universe around us and often found myself imagining the various colors and textures of what lies beyond planet earth. Terra Luna is a reflection of beyond the tangible, bringing the outside inside, a combination of life and the unknown.
