2012 Regional Juried Ceramics Exhibition
March 2 – April 1, 2012
Presented by ClaySpace Ceramic Arts Studio
Juried by Steven Hill
“For some, the space inside a 12″cube will seem nearly infinite,
while others will have to re-imagine their work just to squeeze it in.
I challenge all ceramic artists, from functional potters to sculptors to
installation artists… To see the 12″ glass cube through the eyes
of inspiration rather than limitation!” – Steven Hill
