Linda Sikora

Linda Sikora (b. 1960) is a ceramic artist who hails from Canada and currently lives in Alfred Station, NY. Her jars and teapots are known for their, "...familiarity and congeniality; their ability to disappear into private/personal activities and places... but invisible or visible, the pots foster both attention and inattention. They are insistently existent, and continuously stir."

She received her diploma of Fine Arts from David Thompson University Center, Nelson, British Columbia and holds a B.F.A. from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, Halifax. She also received her M.F.A. from the University of Minnesota. Sikora's work can be found in numerous collections, among them the Arkansas Arts Center, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, and the Northern Clay Center.
