A Catalog of Ordinary Objects

Part science lab, part cabinet of curiosities—Helen Hixon’s A Catalog of Ordinary Objects transforms the everyday into the extraordinary. As the proprietor of Mountain Pottery and a former science & STEAM teacher, Helen curates a modern wunderkammer where mugs, trinkets, tools, and oddities are reimagined as artifacts worth pondering. Each piece whispers a story of function, form, and a little playful mystery. Step closer and you’ll see: there’s nothing ordinary about these objects at all.
