Hannah Cupp grew up enjoying crafting and exploring the woods around her house in northern Georgia. A good while later, when working toward her BFA from Clemson University, she fell in love with clay and the process of creating art that brings people joy when used in day to day life.  Having a background in drawing and a passion for the ceramic process, Hannah finds joy focusing these two mediums in a single practice. Hannah creates functional forms decorated with gestural line drawings, intending to have a contrast between the delicate lines and the harsher volatile surface the atmosphere from wood firing creates.
