My work shows reverence for real bodies while also incorporating elements that are physical manifestations of the intangible. The humans I make are often interconnected with elements of the natural world, many of whom are native to the Pacific Northwest where my family has lived for four generations. Trees, roots, animals, water, stars, and salt are common threads throughout my work. I love paying attention to and learning from our non-human relatives and incorporating their teachings.  My work balances the individual and the collective. Each piece contains a unique individual but also references to a larger collective of people and\/or the natural world.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Artist:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAisha Harrison is a studio and public artist working primarily in ceramics and bronze.
