Footed Vase
Jill Foote-Hutton is known for ceramic sculpture and vessels that are dominated by painted underglaze imagery. Monsters take on various personas in her work; including bison and other creatures. Foote?Hutton?s work also features block printed texts which ? much like the monsters ? help bring her work to life.
Foote-Hutton?s personal creations and field-activities oftentimes go hand-in-hand. Since 2010, she has been engaged in a series entitled Communal Narratives. In which the artist and audience collaborate to create works revolving around the concepts of mythology, story and empowerment. The artist uses monsters as avatars to recreate personal stories. Foote ? Hutton states that the concept of monster is rich in literary history: allowing her audience to create contemporary mythology from personal narrative that she hopes will empower the individual. The finished ceramic works (among other media) take form as both personal creations and collaborations with communities respectively. In 2015 Foote-Hutton established the Whistlepig Studio.
