Michael McCarthy, Williamsburg, MA
Michael McCarthy is a studio potter focusing on wheel thrown, woodfired functional pottery. Michael’s work is made for use in the everyday. With a focus on strong forms and subtle finishes, his pottery is intended to add to, not overpower one’s personal space. We have been showcasing Michael McCarthy's work for over 20 years, celebrating his journey from a self-taught artist to a master potter. After honing his skills through apprenticeships (including three-years with Mark Shapiro) and residencies, Michael returned to Western Massachusetts to establish his own studio and build his wood burning kiln. In addition to his studio practice, Michael is the ceramics instructor at the Austen Riggs Center, a residential psychiatric hospital and treatment center located in Stockbridge.
“I am excited to be a member of the clay community but am aware of the responsibility of craftsmanship and innovation in a timeless art…. I am left with the satisfying challenge — how will I contribute?”
