Episode 38: Naomi Clement and Making Art During a Pandemic

Naomi Clement is a Canadian based potter and educator. We met when we were both in the same cohort during graduate school at Louisiana State University. Naomi is an independent and working artist and the Covid-19 outbreak has hit her hard financially with event cancellations, including many opportunities to sell, share, teach and promote her work. On the podcast, we discuss the fear and frustration that exists for many working artists right now and also the role an artist can play even if it doesn't involve making in a traditional sense.  If you are interested in checking out Naomi's work you can visit her website here and you can follow her heartfelt posts on Instagram @naomikclement.  If you are interested in purchasing a piece by Naomi (and have the funds to do so), you can find her work for sale @companiongallery and @euctectic_gallery.
