After receiving her BFA in Ceramics at
University of Florida, Glenda Taylor began her thirty year journey into
clay. A fourth generation Floridian, she lives in Vero Beach, Florida,
and has spent a lifetime exploring the coastal regions of the Southeast.
She spends time in the Keys and the Bahamas, and her love of the ocean
has resulted in hours spent diving and snorkeling, roaming the beaches,
and researching the abundant marine and wild life therein. Taylor has
been featured on the cover of the country’s most prestigious ceramics
magazine, Ceramics Monthly, and has received recognition in Southern
Living Magazine. She has exhibited in over thirty group
shows, and her work is included in many distinguished collections, including
the White House.
Taylor comes from a family grounded in the sciences.
She is the daughter of a physicist and an engineer. It wasn’t until
the middle of her sophomore year in college that she began to think that
“finding out the mysteries of math and science was not as interesting
as addressing the questions that art explores…. “Art asks
questions that don’t have definitive solutions or concrete objective
answers.” Even so, she found out that her background in math and
science would pay off as she discovered that ceramics was the field to
which she was most attracted. Taylor’s extensive studies of ceramic art history
have given her a deep respect for the ancient Mycenaean and Minoan potters:
“I have found endless inspiration in those historic Greek Isle pots,
mainly because they were made in a time and place where marine life was
so intricately woven into the day to day well-being of the potters’
lives.” Her intricate glaze patterning and mastery of the thrown
form combine to create evocative, provocative, and intriguing work. |
