“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!
The field of ceramics is bursting with some of the most fertile and creative minds in the contemporary art world and I look forward to seeing how the challenge of Clay3 is interpreted!”
