PJ Anderson's figurative sculptures and vessels have rich patinas created through multi-day smoke firings. In our interview we talk about her making process, the influence of sci-fi futurism, and how she teaches students to understand the difference between cultural transmission and appropriation. We also discuss her work in community engagement for the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation, and how maintaining archives address the realities of the past. You can read more about PJ in my book The Complete Guide to Low-Fire Glazes for Potters and Sculptors or visit www.pjandersonceramics.com.
