Mia’s Culpa

I would love for you to have more art

I’m a queer artist and teacher living and making in Denver, CO.

Miriam in black coveralls with asymmetrical hair that includes orange streaks, and large neon lighting bolt earrings.

Some people swap careers along the way (I still have time) but I’ve spent the last 20-some years pursuing simultaneous careers instead: theater with Grapefruit Lab, music with Teacup Gorilla, web design with OddBird, and several other arts unaffiliated (but never alone).

This site has bits and parts of my other arts, but is mostly dedicated to pottery. I’m interested in the ways a process and a material push back, forcing me to adjust and reconsider my perspective. I’m not trying to be original – I only want to be attentive to that negotiation.

I have no interest in a world where I can conjure up exactly what’s in my head. Why bother? I’m constantly imagining the wrong things.
