Obsession? Dodo Birds? AND Polymer Clay? YES!

Now, at first Adam Savage from the Discovery channel show “Mythbusters” talking about Dodo skeletons does not seem to have much to do with polymer clay.  But, just wait until about 3:15 into the video, and then you see that there is a connection with  polymer clay.  His enthusiasm, his love of the process,  his obsession and the joy he takes in it are obvious, and ever so slightly contagious as well.

  1. That was terrific. Very entertaining and different. I love Mythbusters and he is a hoot. Thanks for sharing!!

  2. Wasn’t it fun? I’m almost a big fan of Mythbusters. My husband actually “stumbled” to this video and made me watch – he laughed at me getting all giggly and excited when I realized he was going to actually make a skeleton in clay!

    I love his “the journey and the process is the point” kind of philosophy as well. 🙂

The opening reception will be held on Saturday, June 25, 6-8 PM, and will be free and open to the public.

POP!’s focus on workshops and the materiality of polymer makes this boutique event more than just a conference. Each participating artist was selected for their unique perspectives on polymer and the exciting ways they are moving the medium forward. The featured instructor for the event is Jeffrey Lloyd Dever, whose pioneering techniques in polymer have made him one of the most respected artists in the field. His jewelry and sculptural objects have been shown in many national invitational exhibitions, and his works are represented in numerous private collections, galleries and museums.
