Maya Stack Imagination Fund Recipient — Ceramics in the Wild

Artist statement

I'd like to create a collection of playful ceramic pieces—cups, vases, and figurines—and hide them around my neighborhood in San Francisco for people to find & keep. Each piece will come with a handwritten note, as if the ceramic is speaking directly to its finder, offering a cheeky and personal message. I’ll write and share clues about their hiding spots on social media, inviting neighbors to join the search, but it's just as good if someone stumbles across one by chance. The goal? To bring a little unexpected joy and whimsy to the sidewalks of my neighborhood :)
