William Wyman

William Wyman is well known for a series of stoneware slab built vessels often covered withsgraffitocartoons, poems or other contemporary phrases.

William Wyman began his career as a professional potter in 1953. He and fellow potter Michael Cohen established Herring Run Pottery in 1962, where Wyman created a wide range of both functional and non-functional work. In the 1960s Wyman dipped his smaller slab vessels in multiple glazes creating patterns of flowing colors. In 1965 after time spent in Honduras he began to create undecorated, unglazed geometric driven structures inspired by Mayan ruins which he called ?Temples?.
