娜奥米·彼得森（Naomi Peterson）嬉戏的陶瓷“杯蛋糕”将糖果作为起点

磨砂的海绵和填充馅饼只是粘土中的Naomi Peterson手工艺品中的一些甜食。她嬉戏的“杯子蛋糕”将糖果作为起点，增加了层，让人联想到软糖，冰淇淋勺，浆果和洒水。

Naomi Peterson crafts playful ceramic pieces that are inspired by confectionery. Her work is often functional, incorporating lids or handles to be used as vessels or coffee mugs. Many of her pieces feature bright colors and whimsical patterns, and she often adds elements of nature, such as flowers or leaves.

娜奥米·彼得森（Naomi Peterson）的戏剧性陶瓷作品，灵感来自糖果。她的作品通常是功能性的，并结合了用作容器或咖啡杯的盖子或手柄。她的许多作品具有鲜艳的色彩和异想天开的图案，她经常添加自然元素，例如花或叶子。

Peterson's process is intuitive, and she combines wheel-thrown techniques with hand-building methods like coils, slabs, and pinching. She begins by constructing a basic form, and then she adds or removes elements through darting—cutting wedge-shaped pieces from a cylinder of clay—and embellishing with sprig or press molds.

彼得森的过程是直观的，她将轮毂技术的技术与手工建造方法结合在一起，例如线圈，板和捏合。她首先要构建基本形式，然后通过飞镖添加或去除元素 - 从粘土的圆柱体上切开楔形的碎片，然后用小树枝或压榨模具装饰。

Once the basic form is complete, she begins to add surface decoration. This can involve multiple applications and separate firings to achieve vibrant, layered effects. Her surfaces are often influenced by her previous experience painting with oils.

一旦基本形式完成，她就开始增加表面装饰。这可能涉及多个应用程序和分开的射击，以实现充满活力的分层效果。她的表面通常受她以前用油画绘画的经验影响。

For Peterson, her work is about more than just creating beautiful objects. She is also interested in exploring relationships and the way our actions and emotions entwine us with others and our communities. The spaces in between the dot patterns on her work are essential, she says, "not to keep each element distant but to connect them."

对于彼得森来说，她的工作不仅仅是创造美丽的物体。她还对探索人际关系以及我们的行动和情感与他人和我们的社区的方式感兴趣。她说：“不是要使每个元素保持远处，而是将它们连接起来。”

Although not physically connected, each of us is important as part of a whole.

尽管没有身体上的联系，但我们每个人都很重要。
