New blog post: I started sharing images & info from out-of-print book #NigerianPottery which contains photos of pots I haven't seen anywhere online, particularly with this level of regional detail.
I’m hoping access to such visual archives might inform contemporary practice – both for those reconnecting with heritage and anyone invested in global ceramic histories. Will be adding to this gradually as I work through the material.
