Ruby's is pleased to host renowned Portland-based artist Dwayne Sackey. Come and be mesmerized by his ability to move clay and create fluid forms inspired by the natural world around him.

"Gentle curves, textured surfaces, and meandering lines speak through my art. Atmosphere, expressive brush strokes, and simple glazes mimic the timelessness of nature."

“I especially love the less-predictable nature of atmosphere firings as each firing opens my mind to new shades and colors on my work. I work with different clays, slips, and glazes to achieve ballpark surface colors and the collaboration with fire decides the end result. Layering of glazes and strategic placement in the kiln allows me to achieve my desired palette.”

Artist Bio:

Sackey earned his BFA from Oregon College of Art and Craft in 2019. Merit-based scholarships supported him: the Gregori Jakovina & Larry McDonald Scholarship, the Ellice T. Johnston Scholarship and the OCAC Community College Scholarship. In 2019 Sackey showed at the Multnomah County Justice Center, and in 2021 he showed at the governor’s mansion. Sackey was a recipient of the 2021 Studio Potter Grant for Apprenticeship alongside his mentor Chris Baskin. Sackey published 3 articles in Pottery Making Illustrated and demonstrated at NCECA in 2022
