Pottery For Peace
Bv HARRIET CRIFFITHS
Star Staff Writer

rs POTTERY a peaceful influence
IL on man?
A philosophical young George
town potter named Dennis Parks be-
lieVeS that, in a subtle way, it is.
There is an honesty about creating
a piece of pottery from earth, water
and fire, he points out
1T is such basic material" he
says, land if you use it we'll, it be-
comes statement of honesty in some
ones house.
"A pot lasts from century to cen
tury, and it will have good influence
on someone's life, even though he
may not realize it. I'm not sure how.
but think it is help"
The 24-year-old artist has gone a
step further to work an overt peace
motif into some of his pottery. Ex-
ampleS are peace mugs" bearing
the word. Peace" and a little line
drawing of figure with arms raised
in gesture of non-violence.
Another is a "fallout" helmet,
suggestive both of medieval helmets
and aboriginal masks designed to
rout evil spirits.
1t is something to remind people
of historical similarities between our
situation and those of other ages
