# Forrest lesch-middelton

forrest's works are complex in their creation, though they still illustrate the intrinsic beauty found in the everyday ceramic object. his use of a variety of historic patterns create a common language to take the user beyond utility, and hint at the deeper beauty of unfamiliar places.

primarily a maker of pots and vessels, forrest has allowed clé to coax him into the world of tiles, unearthing his creations of tone-on-tone whites and browns. at a quick glance, his tiles could be described as a present-day archaeological find, each, a soulful "shard" intimately decorated.
