Seven years ago while attending graduate art school at Ohio University I excavated over 2,500 “Athens Blocks” from the hills surrounding the Hocking River. | Foam bricks – looks real, weighs nothing – $40 |
|
Pewter keychains and magnets – $12.50 |
I used these bricks to create a sculpture garden behind my studio in Athens, Ohio. | |
Ceramic ‘Pony Blocks’, 25% scale – no two alike – $45 |
Ceramic Trivets – use on the table or as a wall hanging – $35 |
|
Upon sharing this experience with others I soon learned almost everyone in the area has an “Athens Block” experience to share, and that they shared this experience with great enthusiasm. My wife Erin and I met at Ohio University and once we graduated we decided to merge our ceramic studio and foundry together to create renderings of the “Athens Block”. | ||
We did this to recognize and celebrate the historical and cultural connection a simple brick has made with the Athens community over time. | Athens Block Trivet – $35 |
|
Necklaces – pewter, patina bronze or silver – 45$ and up |
We hope you will enjoy the various ways the “Athens Block” has returned. | |
Paperweights, pewter or patina bronze – $40 or $75 a pair |
