Angel Oloshove is a Houston, TX, based ceramicist who has quickly garnered attention for her unique whimsical ceramics. After attending CCA, Oloshove moved to Japan and took on an involved craft practice. Working in toy and doll production for a Japanese-based company, Oloshove met toy fabricators who were supremely talented and had honed their techniques for many years. Oloshove incorporates those experiences as well as pop cultural influences into her work today. With ceramics that are utilitarian in nature, Oloshove hopes her pieces can permeate the sanctity of someone’s daily ritual. In this way, the artworks become a part of someone’s life, reminding them of forgotten acts like drinking the morning coffee.
