Judith Weber
Artist Statement
"I have always believed that the objects we use every day should not
only function superlatively, but also enhance our lives aesthetically."
As a studio potter, Judith Weber has focused on creating art for the
table. Specializing in custom-designed accessories which exemplify elegance,
purity of form, and a striking, ever-changing palette of color, her work
has been featured in Tableware Today, House and Garden, Bon Appetit,
Gourmet, Elle Decor, Architectural Digest, Oprah and New York Magazines.
Weber decides on a functional object, draws it until the silhouette is
pleasing, and then produces a prototype on the wheel. Next, she makes a
mold and begins to cast the chosen object, simultaneously developing
glazes that will enhance its form.
Motivated by the relationship of Form to Function, her signature piece,
the "Classic Tea" embodies the successful fusion of silhouette and
serviceability. It continues to grace the shelves of high-end specialty
and museum stores throughout the country including the Museum of Art and
Design in NY and SFMOMA in CA.
An artist who thrives on challenge and diversity, Weber's
accomplishments also include the installation of mosaic facades, and a
13 ft. bas relief sculptural installation for the New Rochelle Public
Library. Judith was responsible for the development of Media Loft, an
Artist in Residence Condominium, which she developed in a 100 year old,
historic landmark industrial building in New Rochelle, NY.
