ABOUT ROB FROESE
Raised in Saskatchewan, Rob’s ceramic practice has been strongly influenced by 15 years of making and exhibiting in Japan. Since 2015, he has produced work and taught out of a Saskatoon studio, Medalta International Artists in Residence, Medicine Hat, and the Alberta University of the Arts in Calgary, where he is a Sessional Ceramics Faculty member. His work is informed by an art centred upbringing, travel and work experiences in Canada, Mexico, Europe and Southeast Asia, and formal art studies at the University of Saskatchewan (BA), University of Regina (BFA), and Alberta University of the Arts (MFA Craft Media). Rob’s ceramic work employs a growing variety of clay bodies, forming techniques, and diverse kiln firing methods. Learn more at: robfroese.com
