Sandra Zuidema
@ St. Jacobs Mennonite Church
The patterns and skeletal structures found both in nature and architecture are the inspiration that drive Sandra’s work. Her medium is clay – wedged, thrown, carved and pierced – just to the point it can stand before cracking. As she pushes the structural limits of clay, she strives to make a substance as hard as rock and sharp as glass feel weightless, as light as a leaf skeleton, as fluid as water, as fleeting as a flame.
