Rough it Out explores the profound parallels between the cycles of life and the transformative journey of clay. From raw earth to refined ceramic, clay reflects the human experience in how we must too face hardship in order to transform into stronger, more compassionate individuals. Just as clay endures rigorous firing, we as humans are shaped by grief and affliction to become whole again. Together, we practice the delicate rituals of growth, loss, and renewal.
