Artist Creates Upcycled Ceramic Creations With An Attitude (30 Pics)

Published 1 year ago

Dave Zackin is a Brooklyn-based pottery artist who uses discarded pots to create functional artwork at his community ceramic studio in NY. His passion for trying to make something new out of half-finished pot has become a challenge that has seen him churning out many pieces over time. 

Zackin admits that though he was never great at drawing from life, he had a talent for putting in eyes and noses to create funny faces. He translated this skill to a big pile of discarded pots he found in his backyard where folks had thrown out pots on which they had tested our glazing experiments. The experiment soon grew to an obsession with a rising collection of discarded pots decorated with funny faces and written notes from which we’ve shared a few in the gallery below.

Shanilou has always loved reading and learning about the world we live in. While she enjoys fictional books and stories just as much, since childhood she was especially fascinated by encyclopaedias and strangely enough, self-help books. As a kid, she spent most of her time consuming as much knowledge as she could get her hands on and could always be found at the library. Now, she still enjoys finding out about all the amazing things that surround us in our day-to-day lives and is blessed to be able to write about them to share with the whole world as a profession.

Got wisdom to pour?
