Featuring work from Leah Wolff, Patrice Washington, Loouiza Furia, Katie Furr, Christian Dietkus Lord, Irini Miga and Ector Garcia, the exhibition acts to interrogate the current meaning of contemporary ceramics as a tool for confrontation, protest or expression of artistic statements. The exhibition incorporates diverse subjects, working techniques and mediums in creating a ceramic object, furthering the relationship between the use of “clay as a direct material” and the incorporation of zines and “HOMEBASE” (The placement of an Object in location to it’s USER) as mediators and meaning producers.
