Tilly Troelstrup- Artist
Statement
What interrupts it? A line
carries on its course until its environment jars its path, forcing the line to
adjust if it wishes to continue. I layer line drawings on ceramic pots to
represent the adjustments and changes we all experience in our relationships to
people, places and things.
The ways that clay naturally
responds to manipulations creates an environment for my line drawings to
respond to. By embracing the handmade qualities of clay and its sensitivity at
varying stages, an unintentional dent early on becomes a valley for a line to
cross at a later stage. This open minded practice creates opportunities for my
most present emotions during making to present new ideas, based on the freedom
to express real time.
A strong interest in writing has
led to the discovery of wonderful correlations between the poetics of ceramics
and the romance of verbal expression, both highly capable of creating a
response unique to each user. Contemporary graffiti, spoken word,
disintegrating architecture and fleeting emotions during high stress all
influence a passionate affair with reflection, in order to best be present in
the moment.
By reflecting on my life’s
lessons in abstract patterns on pots, my forms have come to hold a geography of
the heart on their surface. Each pot tells a story of an experience whose
resulting lesson becomes the story. These experiences to be had are unique to
each person, and highly personal, but the larger lessons we learn come to be
much the same. It is my hope that viewers are drawn to the abstracted surface
and as they follow it around the pot, they reflect and inherently agree to
play. The quiet that consumes them as they follow the line is a rare serenity
my pots offer viewers, for but a moment, in our constantly rushing society.

The non-profit organization ‘c.r.e.t.a. rome’ is offering
an international self-funded residency program in Rome, Italy. The
Italian word for clay seemed perfect to express our commitment to
creating an international reference point for ceramics and the arts
in the eternal city of Rome. Moreover, taken as an acronym, it spells
out our main activities: ceramics, residencies, exhibitions,
teaching and the arts. We are located in the mid 16th-century
Palazzo Delfini in the historical center of Rome, just blocks from
the Capitoline Hill on one side and the Pantheon on the other.
We offer artist residencies for ceramicists and visual artists for
periods of 4 to 6 weeks (or 3 months: if you are interested you can
extend your residency period into our Fall session). The residency
includes a semi-private equipped studio, housing in the historical
center of Rome, and technical assistance in procuring materials,
firings, etc., advice on museums, galleries and sites in Rome and
beyond. Artists have the opportunity to focus on their art, whether it
be creating a new body of work, expanding a well-established oeuvre
or allowing themselves to draw inspiration from their surroundings
and the centuries of culture that define the eternal city. In
addition, they will have access to the wealth of galleries and
exhibitions in Rome and beyond. Artists will have an opportunity to
present a proposal for a final exhibition of the works produced during
the residency period.
We are also offering a residency in the countyside near Bracciano,
with private accommodation in a 1-bedroom house with a garden and a
private studio. This option is particulary atractive for ceramic artists
who work with reduction firing and/or collaborative projects.
A selection committee composed of artists, art critics and historians
carefully evaluates applicants based on their artistic experience,
merit and project proposal. For more info and costs, contact Lori-Ann
Touchette, [email protected] or see our web-site:
www.cretarome.com.
SUMMER residency periods: 1-30 JUNE, 1 JULY-11 AUGUST 2014
To apply, please submit the following by e-mail to [email protected] by 1 March 2014:
