Inside this episode with your host, Mitch Hampton
Sometimes a guest has had such a varied career or more than one career that it feels right to devote two episodes to them. Joanne Davis Woods is most representative in this regard.
Coming from one of the smallest towns in Michigan she developed into one of the leading crafts experts in the Hollywood of the 1990s, Wood’s story touches on the subjects of what it is to physically create with ones' own hands, craft more generally, and even the subjects of literature and physics.
I hope you enjoy watching this episode as much as we did creating it.
Joanne’s Bio ( from her lovely website) :
From a little Michigan village searching the driveway gravel for treasure, to Michigan State University studying Physics, to climbing pyramids & volcanoes; from restoring historic theaters in Wisconsin to painting movie
sets in Hollywood, life has led Joanne to Asheville, NC to find time and opportunity to acquire skills needed to bring her ideas into being.
In metal smithing, Joanne finds a path that balances both rigor and lyricism. Fascinated with the aesthetics of the Byzantine civilization and the utility of the industrial revolution she strives to embed her work in history, yet keep it contemporary.
Often she will begin with an interesting technique, or invent a project to learn the manner of construction of an historic work. She is careful to keep the mark of hand and tool, she looks for an amalgam ancient yet sophisticated, the elusive simple composition.
