About the Artist
Savannah Asmus is a Southern artist and teacher based in Daphne, Alabama, whose work explores the beauty and complexity of liminal spaces—the quiet, transformative moments between stillness and change, memory and myth.
Along the shoreline of Mobile Bay, she collects pottery fragments—softened by water and time—and transforms them into miniature oil paintings. Each piece tells a layered story of heritage, personal memory, and quiet resilience. Inspired by literature, the natural world, and the history embedded in forgotten things, Savannah blends realism with a dreamlike sensibility. Her work invites viewers to rediscover a sense of wonder in overlooked places and broken objects, reminding us that beauty often lives in what we thought was lost.
