One of the first potters that I met at the Murwillumbah Potters Group was Jim Hall. He is in his 80’s now, but loves pottery and the processes still. In speaking with him, it became apparent that he had a wonderful story to tell. He was gracious enough to allow me to video tape him talking about his life as a potter and showing me some of his work. I think it is important to keep visual/audio records of people that have been involved in the artistic history of a country – they are our legacy.
thanks so much for this Marian… I lived in the Wollongong/Kiama area and though the name is familiar I never knew Jim. I’ll be sharing this around so others can be informed.
