Ships in a Crate
We forfeit a sliver of ourselves to the task of making our mark. Immediately these remnants and imprints begin erasing away. Just like the sand that is washed by the tides was once stone, we erode into the next generation’s imprintable surface. When viewed from above "Eroding into the Next Generation" reveals hand thrown riverbed potholes, but after further investigation the thrown forms are understood as limbs that are wearing away as their owner is trudging through a muddy riverbed. Since erosion is a dynamic force, the ceramic surface is held frozen by sets of erosion controlling gabions.

Nicholas Dertien, is a Austin based artist, educator and small business owner. After completing his MFA at the Rhode Island School of Design in 2009, Nicholas set up a private sculpture studio in Austin. He has exhibited work in Marfa, Seattle, Austin, Providence and New York. Over the past decade, Nicholas’s major studio themes have focused on visually representing the sensation of breath, asthma and the eroding of the physical body. In 2015, Nicholas launched Visual Ministry Consulting which strives to create visually vibrant experiences for local worshiping communities. Nicholas is an adjunct faculty member at Austin Community College and Concordia University Texas, where he teaches drawing, design, glass, photography and ceramics. As an educator Nicholas believes that creating a "non-fear based learning environment" is critical for a creative studio course. Within this learning environment students learn to use a discovery based practice, the design development process and critiques as a tool for positive growth. His teaching philosophy can be found on his website. Nicholas lives and works in south Austin with his wife and four sons.
