Aiden the Potter

Aiden Buxman is a potter based in Northern Fort Collins. Aiden’s work uses a mix of commercial clay as well as locally foraged clay. Aiden takes inspiration from the Japanese art of putting hot pottery into a bucket of combustibles, known as Raku. He also takes lots of inspiration from the ground beneath your feet; Aiden collects clay from all around Fort Collins as well as sand from rivers and lakes in Fort Collins to use in his body of work, from using the sand as support in the clay to using the locally foraged clay as a glaze on top of the pottery. His inspiration mainly comes from mountains and nature seen around Fort Collins.
