Deborah Caplow makes hand-built clay vessels that reflect her appreciation for Japanese ceramics and represent her quest for symmetry and balance in art and life. She also creates sculptural animal figures, inspired by ancient art and folk art from around the world. In addition, she is an art historian and curator, and taught at the University of Washington for twenty years, with a primary specialty of Mexican art, as well as nineteenth and twentieth-century art, women artists, the intersection between art and politics, and the history of photography. She is the author of a book about the Mexican print-maker Leopoldo Méndez, and has curated exhibitions of Mexican graphics in Seattle and in Mexico.
