About the Artist
Ashwini Bhat studied ceramics with Ray Meeker at Golden Bridge Pottery, Pondicherry. She has a M.A. degree in literature and studied classical dance for nearly ten years before working as a professional dancer in the Padmini Chettur Dance Company for four years.
For the last year and a half Ashwini has been hopping from residency to residency around the US. Prior to her three-week residency in Red Lodge, she was in California and is headed to Providence, RI. While she has always worked with stoneware and atmospheric firing, at Red Lodge she, for the first time, built with earthenware and electric firing.
