2008 Artist Projects Recipients Jason Hess – From Narrative to Allegorical Vessels. The artist, whose works draw heavily upon eastern ceramic traditions synthesized with western aesthetics, will be creating large-scale slip cast vessels. The vessels will be adorned with brightly colored glaze, china painted imagery, and ceramic decals, creating a narrative that speaks to both eastern and western culture. Hess lives in Williams. Panel Comments: In his work, Hess formally synthesizes eastern ceramic traditions with western ideas and aesthetics. The opportunity to go to China and experiment with large scale, advance ceramic technology will greatly move his already strong work forward.
