Steve Hansen is a potter living in Wisconsin. His work reflects his interest in the rural
aesthetics of the rustbelt. Having lived in Minnesota, Iowa, Michigan, New York, and
Oklahoma, the surfaces he loves to emulate in his work reflect those weathered by ice,
wind, and sun. Holes in barn walls repaired with 70-year-old license plates, or tin beer
cans full of rusted nails are visual inspirations. Having taught studio art, and art history
for 30 years, his interests also extend to cultural history. As a child of the 1970’s there is
a strong thread of nostalgia running through his work as well. Steve loves the idea that
his work will be used and bring a bit of joy to the user.
