Marcy Neiditz: New Work in Clay – 2022
For over 35 years, Marcy Neiditz has been a ceramic artist, potter, sculptor and vessel maker. The artworks in this exhibit embody her love of color, pattern, design and texture—painted and carved on the surface of clay. Her work often references plant-life, nature, the microscopic world, and is inspired by the art of indigenous cultures and mid-century modern design. The abstract characters, drawn on the forms, come from her quirky imagination. The overall surface design has a narrative quality, and the story is left to the viewer's imagination.
Her newest body of work, Marcy Neiditz: New Work in Clay – 2022, is on exhibit at By Hand Gallery, Fountain Square Mall, 101 W. Kirkwood Ave., Ste. 109, Bloomington, IN 47404

Further information........
The work in this show is an exploration of her familiar cast of characters, as well as new characters, new stories, and new forms in clay. Marcy’s process begins with both wheel-thrown and hand-built forms. The process continues with hand painted layers of color, incised sgraffito drawings, glazes, and finishes with several firings in a kiln.
Marcy has worked in clay for over 35 years. She has a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Ceramics from California State University–Long Beach and a Master of Fine Arts in Ceramics from Indiana University. She currently teaches ceramics as an adjunct professor in the Fine Arts Department of Ivy Tech Community College–Bloomington. Marcy also teaches privately from her studio, and travels for lectures and workshops regionally and nationally. She is a longtime member of the Local Clay Potters’ Guild in Bloomington, and is active in the local art community. Her work is exhibited at select art fairs and galleries, and is in the collection of several museums and various private collectors.
