Lowell Hutcheson is a ceramic artist whose work reflects a deep connection to nature, commitment to sustainability, and the quiet power of handmade objects. Every aspect of her practice—from the raw materials she uses to the way she lives—is shaped by a conscious effort to reduce her carbon footprint and reconnect with the natural world.

This ethos carries into her studio, where she works primarily with raw clay and slips, allowing the material to speak for itself without excessive decoration. The result is work that feels grounded, elemental, and honest—pieces that celebrate imperfection and echo the functional vessels created by our ancestors.

Inspired by the textures of the natural world and traditional craft practices, her pottery embraces the unpredictable beauty that emerges through process. Each piece is shaped by place, fire, and time, serving as a quiet reminder of what it means to live more simply and more consciously.

Hutcheson holds a Master of Arts in Liberal Studies with a focus on The Arts in Higher Education from SUNY Brockport and a Bachelor of Arts in German and Slavic Languages from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She currently serves as the Director of Arts Programming at SUNY Oswego in Oswego, NY, where she also teaches Arts Management.
