Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an interview with Amy Santoferraro.

She says of her collections, “I love that any silly lil' ole object can become charged with meaning, history, sentiment, and the authority to tell stories.,,I relentlessly tinker with objects ceramicly until they fit and work in a way that is very mine.“
