Exhibition: Recent Works: Peter B. Jones

Above art: Ode to Caroline Parker, stoneware, by Peter B. Jones

Peter B. Jones is a renowned potter and sculptor who resides on the Allegany Territory of the Seneca Nation of Indians. He studied under Hopi artist Otellie Loloma while attending the Institute of American Indian Art in New Mexico. His pottery, some of which is derived from traditional Iroquois pit firing, hand-built coiling, and slab construction, is admired and collected by community members, Native American art collectors, and museums across the country and internationally. Reminiscent of early Iroquois pottery, Jones’s art directly reflects the issues that have impacted the Hodinöhsö:ni’. Jones works mostly in stoneware and white earthenware clay.
