Grace DePledge makes
intricately carved, one-of-a-kind pottery to celebrate and enhance the
simple joy of our daily routines. She is inspired by nature as well as
historical ornament and decorates the surfaces of her pots entirely by
hand, primarily through carving. She hopes her pots bring functional
elegance and everyday enjoyment to those who use them. www.gracedepledge.com

After travelling to Northern Ireland,
Denmark and England, ‘Fragile! In Transit’ – which was featured on this bloglast September – is currently showing in Cardiff, Wales.
                 
‘Fragile! In Transit’ was created as a
travelling exhibition by a collective of ceramic artists who met on a Project
Network residency at the International Ceramic Research Center in Denmark a
year ago. A few months after returning from their residency, the nine artists
each made a new piece of work, forming a collection which has been touring
around Europe since summer 2012.
Each artist is responsible for organising and
curating an exhibition in their city of residence. The current display in
Cardiff focuses on the travelling side of the project, making use of the boxes
and packaging materials as part of the display.
To follow the progress of the exhibition,
please visit http://projectnetwork3.tumblr.com/ or the ‘Fragile! InTransit’ page on Facebook. Both pages are updated with information,
correspondences between the artists and photographs from the exhibitions and
the life of the project between destinations.
Venue: Milkwood Gallery, Roath, Cardiff –

Dates: 14 – 25 March 2013
