Some things are made slowly, with attention, with care, with a quiet reverence for what is living in the world around us.

At Radiance, we are making space for work that stays in relationship, to the earth, to the elements, to the presence within things often overlooked.

On April 24th and 25th, during Olympia ArtsWalk, from eleven in the morning into the evening, we will gather around slow craft, shared memory, and the understanding that what we make is never separate from the world it comes from.

Sherry Kirk of Sidhe Fire Arts comes with a body of work held under the theme Vessels for Magic and Healing. Her pieces are meant to be used, lived with, and returned to. In them, clay carries earth, water, air, and fire together, shaped into forms that hold warmth, nourishment, and intention. There is a kind of listening in her work, a recognition that these elements are not passive, but present, each with its own nature, each part of the whole. Since turning to the wheel in 2015 in her Rainier studio, her work has remained rooted in that awareness, creating objects that serve while honoring the forces that made them possible.

We will also be joined by Joseph S. Hopkins and Lauren E. Fountain of Hyldyr Publications, a press named for the elder tree, long understood as a keeper, a healer, a threshold. Their work moves through deep and often overlooked sources, drawing from traditions where language, land, and spirit were never separate. Together, they work across Germanic and Slavic traditions, folklore, runes, plant knowledge, and early language, bringing forward texts that carry the presence of those who came before. What they offer is not only study, but a way of remembering how to be in relationship with what surrounds us.

This is a gathering shaped by care, by continuity, and by a respect for the living world in all its forms.

If you come in, come with time.

There will be work made with intention, stories that have traveled far, and a space where the seen and unseen are held a little closer together.

The door is open.

Initial Announcement - More to Come!

Local Artist, Sherry Kirk

From Army to Artist

After being in the military for over 20 years, Sherry Kirk was looking for a complete change in her life. So she used her GI bill to study art at The Evergreen State College. She enjoys creating useful and creative pieces that last through the test of time. “There is an addiction to taking a raw piece of the Earth and turning into something sleek and useful.”

Sherry’s primary art obsession is creating functional pottery. “I fell in love with throwing clay on the wheel while studying art in 2008. Art became my new and abiding passion.”

Being an artist contributes to Sherry’s physical and metal well being. “The zen of watching the pottery wheel spin and the calm that comes when the clay flows smoothly through my hands sealed my addiction to making functional pottery vessels.”

Sherry is often inspired by her love of Medieval reenactment while participating with the Empire of Medieval Pursuits and Society for Creative Anarchism groups. She truly enjoys creating pottery inspired by historical forms.

Sherry also dabbles in independent film production, fine book binding, fine metal work, costuming and anything to do with permaculture. You can see the kind of fun-cheezy-quirky movies she likes to be involved with at www.emberdaysmovie.com

The wares are wheel-thrown in her studio nestled in the beautiful Pacific Northwest forest. The pieces are fired to Cone 6 or about 2230 degrees, making them incredibly durable.

All of Sidhefire Art’s functional pottery is microwave and dishwasher safe and contains no lead making them completely food safe. Pottery is designed for both beauty and functionality. Sherry even takes her personal dishes on camping trips she enjoys in the beautiful Pacific Northwest!
