Christian describes himself as “just a dirty hairy potter the piney woods of south Mississippi.” He has earned a B.F.A. in Sculpture form the University of Southern Mississippi and also a Masters of Education. Christian puts both of those degrees to work showing high school students the wonders of art. His work is exploration of body imagery and society’s views of what is beauty. The pursuit of pushing clay to twisted, folded and luscious curves has infected his functional work. Christian Bailey pushes the form of his functional ware to play with the concepts found in his sculptural works. In doing so it creates pieces that are not just pretty in the eye but in the hand and in its successful completion of its designated task.
