Handmade pots hold meaning to Corey Johnson for the time and dedication it takes to make and design them. It is a combination of these aspects that invite people to use pots and makes them hold value in their daily lives. These pieces may serve as vessels for daily meals or be placed in a home for decoration. Corey is fascinated in the value and purpose his work can serve in this context. These ideas and concepts encourage Corey to enhance the pottery he makes to provide a more meaningful experience to a morning coffee break or family dinner. When using handmade pots there is a connection between the maker and the user. Corey is interested in how his ideas and thoughts for forming and finishing his work can translate into where and how someone else may use them in their own life.
