Artist: Amy Sinbondit
Sinbondit worked at the Cleveland Institute of Art as a ceramic artist, teacher, and technical specialist. Her work is regularly exhibited, including at the Akron Art Museum in Akron, Ohio, and the Museum of Craft and Design in San Francisco, and she has twice won Individual Excellence Awards from the Ohio Arts Council. Her ceramic sculptures and object designs, she explained, explore "paths of movement" in clay, bending, curving, twisting and curling to create marks like calligraphic brushstrokes. She finds inspiration in the swirls of Arabic, Tamil, and other languages that treat handwriting as an art form.
carta owns a large collection of artwork by Cleveland area artists, both for adults and children, and purchases about $25,000 of new art annually. We further our mission by donating annual scholarships to Cleveland Institute of Art students and provide educational activities to enhance awareness of area artists.
