My artworks explore the idea of costume
through the use of theatrical influences and the main medium of ceramics. I
utilise this by focusing on repetition in my ceramic forms and experimenting
with ways of enhancing the body through the use of these forms. This idea
concentrates on augmenting areas of the human body as a response to the body as
a surface and space.
It is also through this use of ceramics
in conjunction with inspiration drawn from fauna that I am able to give my
ceramics pieces an element of softness. The robustness of the clay contrasts
with the natural fragility that the forms represent. This quality is something
that is extended and explored through the scale of the forms and the way they
are arranged in mass across areas of the garments.

These
images are from a recent project
revolving around race and sexuality. I find clay to be a very physical,
sexual, and sensual material; an appropriate material through which to
talk about the human body. As a young Iranian student at Emily Carr,
most of my work is about race, this project focuses on the sexual and
physical experiences of race. There was a short sound clip accompanying
this piece which was a recording of me telling a story about being
confronted by a stranger about my American
citizenship and ability to speak two languages. I tied this story in
with poetry about the body and sexuality.

The Ceramics Triennial,
manifestation with the decades-long tradition has well-deserved
reputation as the event which embraced the most important
accomplishments of the art of ceramics. Enriched by the contemporary
ceramic production in which design, technique and concept play crucial
roles, the current Ceramics Triennial features artistic creations and individual poetics of the contemporary production, too.
For this, 14th Ceramics Triennial,
the total of 62 artists applied, while the selected exhibition features
44 works by 34 authors. According to its established tradition, the Ceramics Triennial
is based on contest. The prizes awarded at it act as an acknowledgment
of quality, they ministered the affirmation of either artists or
tendencies present in their works, they are a sign of success, as well

The exhibition of the 14th Ceramics Triennial
features, along with the show of the authorial works, the individual
exhibition of artist Larisa Ackov, who presents her works as the

Works created by a group of Hungarian ceramists, are also on the show,

Kečkemet. Numerous educational, interactive workshops and lectures for

The cooperation between Museum of Applied Art in Belgrade and
the Modern Gallery “Likovni susret” from Subotica, proved very fruitful
once more. As organizers of 14th Ceramics Triennial,
which took place in Subotica between December 2012 and March 2013, they
will present the latest accomplishments and concepts in the
contemporary ceramics to the public in Belgrade, as well, between May 11

My name is Cherie Peyton and I live in Sydney, Australia. I originally
attended evening pottery classes in the early 90s when my sons were
small – I enjoyed it so much I never stopped. I now teach wheel
throwing and porcelain jewellery evening classes myself for our Local
Community College and love passing on my knowledge and skills to
newcomers. The kinds of pots I enjoy making are large carved bowls, I
am intrigued by tree roots and branches which have a big influence in my
pots. Flowers are another favourite of mine and I also love making
porcelain roses and the porcelain jewellery.

Want
to be featured as an emerging artist on musing? All you have to do is
send me some images, a brief write up if you’d like, and a
website if you have it to [email protected] If you could put emerging
artist in the subject header of the email so it doesn’t get lost in my
spam folder that would be great. Thanks!
