This year’s winner of the Sheridan College Gardiner Museum Award, presents a solo exhibition and reception for Adaptations at the Gardiner Museum.
The show runs May 6 to July 10th
“In my site-specific installation Adaptations, I have constructed bricks, modeled figures and clay-dipped both organic and non-organic objects. The dipped objects are attached to the figures and fired as body-parts.
My ceramic process gravitates towards experimentation and material failure. The inherent fragility of ceramics translates into narrative in my work. Bricks are heavy objects, which in multiples can: shelter, protect, detain, demarcate, divide, collapse. Within this environment my figures adopt survival adaptations taken from industrial, natural and entertainment models, coping responses to an unpredictable world”
