Brian R. Jonescast

Daniel Duford is a Portland artist and educator. The range of materials he uses to make his work (comic books, pottery, printmaking) reflects his interest in working from a place outside of what might be considered the "normal" art world. His interest in storytelling and investigations into myth and history has led him to working in a larger scale to better envelope the audience. We cover a lot in this one: pissing off Ken Price, being Catholic, comic books, the traditional lack of curiosity within ceramics and craft, and the role of myth and history within American culture.
