Paul Briggs

Paul Briggs’ signature ideas about art objects as material shapes began as an undergraduate. Primarily a slab-builder, his pinching technique takes inspiration from the idea that “nature makes no aesthetic mistakes.” Briggs earned a PhD from Penn State and an MFA from MassArt. He teaches ceramic art at Alfred University.
