by Carole Epp | Jun 14, 2009 | Uncategorized

I’m just loving these pieces by Melissa Mytty, the Clay Studio’s recent resident artist. Check out the show online here or in person if you can before the 28th of June. There’s also a great artist statement on the website and a few other shows running concurrently that also look amazing.

Exhibition runs from the 12.06.2009 – 19.07.2009 @ Manly Art Gallery & Museum
Official Opening: 13 June 2009, Special Event: Sunday, 19 July in conjunction with the Australian Ceramics Triennale.
From the Triennial website:

WHITE HEAT
[ n. an extreme heat that stretches the limits of the safety and familiarity]

Transformative practices that move beyond the object of utility, often take risks that propel the maker and viewer into unfamiliar territory. The exhibition titled White Heat offers a space for discourses of social, political and cultural concern. The articulation of issues that may be personal or affect others has a strong presence in recent ceramic history and is often manifest with an understanding of clay, its materiality and process. Exploring ideas, while refusing to jettison matter, encapsulates a challenge to the modernist separation of meaning, making and materiality. Boundary-crossing practices such as these are engaging, and extend into risky territory, embracing the slippage between the domains of art, craft and design while confronting the topical, the contentious and the unexpected. Your concerns may be the human condition, the environment, consumerism or a critique of ceramics practice. What risks do you take through your practice?
