Rachel Recker is an artist based out of Everett, Washington, whose work is inspired by the Pacific Northwest. Graduated from Maryland Institute college of Art with a printmaking degree in 2007 she moved to the PNW and has since lived all over Snohomish and King County. In 2016 she graduated from WCC and entered the Physical Therapy Assistant World still working at local Rehab places around Everett. With her supportive connections she started Salish Sea Ceramic Studio in Fall 2020.

By layering clay and glazes within her pottery work, she creates textures to invoke similar emotions to being in nature. She feels her pottery is like seashells from the ether, each one unique and plucked out of the tides of energy currents. Rachel draws recognizable imagery from nostalgic and modern pop culture - images with which the viewer may have their own experiences - creating a dialogue of shared experience growing up in modern America, and the ever changing context with which we live.
