Beth Cavener Stichter reports from her new home in Eastern Washington that she has been back to work following the purchase of and move to a new home, building a new studio, and recovering from a hand injury. Despite the turmoil, she has produced a new body of work that is on exhibit at the Art Spirit Gallery in Coeur d'Alene, ID. The exhibit is titled "Apologia." Read a review here.
There’s no question in my mind that Beth’s new work is equally as powerful as all that I have seen before. She continues to make some of the most visually and emotionally powerful sculpture seen today.
As part of Migration’s summer show "Conscious Clay", one of our hopes has been to show the varied ways that clay is used in art. In other words – pottery is not just about pots. Although we did not include any figurative work in the exhibit, please consider Beth’s sculptures as a sort of "virtual addendum" to the show.

I think I love her. Her art is amazing and she probably is too
