Cardinal Cup

Description

Ronan Kyle Peterson grew up in Poplar, NC, a small community deep in the mountains of western North Carolina. He attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and in 1996 received a Bachelor of the Arts degree in Anthropology, with a minor in Folklore. His interest in Folklore led him to John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC, where he began taking classes in ceramics and other media. After working for two years with two potters in the Asheville area, he attended Penland School of Crafts.

Currently, Ronan maintains Nine Toes Pottery, a ceramics studio in Chapel Hill, NC, that produces decorative and functional earthenware vessels. His work is drawn from processes of growth and decay in the natural world and translated into a ceramic comic book interpretation of both real and imagined phenomena.

Ronan’s work is included in the Permanent Collections of the North Carolina Pottery Center in Seagrove, NC, and the Governor Morehead School in Raleigh, NC.

Also an educator, Ronan taught for 10 years at local craft centers and ceramics studios in the Chapel Hill/Raleigh/Durham area of NC, and has recently taught workshops throughout the Southeastern United States, including at Penland School of Crafts and Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts.
