About the Item

Hand built ceramic sculpture featuring whimsical, surreal animal figures that are personified with a hobo vibe. Keith Schneider creates figures that appear to be clothed in old, tattered found objects, but everything is made new and entirely from clay and fire on pigments, such as glazes and underglazes. Schneider states, "I am most interested in things that 'wear' their history: torn and yellowed scraps of paper, old wooden toys, discarded pencils with labels worn, used shell casings, obsolete maps . . . each of these objects, or fragments of them, has a presence that compels me to collect them and use them in my work. The life story that each object could tell remains a mystery, but the hint of its past adds another layer of richness, even when drawn over or partially obscured by paint. In my ceramic work, inspired by things I have scavenged, I often invent my own “found” objects and materials. I try to create in them a sense of age comparable to that which I see in actual objects I have collected. I am then able to piece them together in much the same way as my assemblages. In my more recent ceramic work, I have used clay “fabric” to dress up my characters and clay tape ands stitching to hold them together. Since facial expression is so important in defining the personality of each of my figures, using wrinkles, tears and holes in the clay fabric has opened up new and exciting options for achieving this. Often, as I am working, these pieces take on a life of their own and it is interesting to me that some of my characters seem anxious and overwhelmed, some worried and perplexed, some quizzical and amused. As I live with these characters, I believe that they speak to me about myself." Keith Schneider lives and works in Arcata, California where, in addition to making art, he has worked as a professor of ceramics and drawing at Humboldt State University for more than 30 years.
