25.01.2022 2019 Graduating Student | Annie Parnell | Bachelor of Visual Arts Parnell’s work explores new systems of building form through active deviation from traditional ceramics processes. Traditional ceramics practice favours skill, control and the expected outcome over chance. When chance is involved as an element of the making process interesting results can and do arise. By randomly applying thick glaze to delicate porcelain forms, heat catalyses an interaction where porcelain s...tructures obstruct and/or are warped by glaze flow. The resulting forms are evidence of and reliant on these unplanned chance based transformations. Post firing, actions of glaze that oozed and dripped over smooth clay surfaces, are stopped in motion, evoking in the viewer feelings of embodiment and abjection. In feminist theory, the abject is that which threatens subjectivity as it has traversed bodily boundaries. The abject is embodied by glaze, which, mobilised by the firing process, threatens the structures it encounters. Here material deviation comes to represent a feminist interrogation of the patriarchal ceramics traditions.

25.01.2022 Would love to see you at the exhibition opening this coming Saturday 13th April at 2.30pm. The exhibition coincides with a residency hosted at the ANU School of Art & Design Ceramics Workshop from 8 - 18 April

25.01.2022 Graduating Student 2019 | Master of Visual Arts | Sadhana Peterson This body of ceramic work has been inspired by the relationship of gesture and proximity, particularly in parent/child relationships. The study of personal space (proxemics) describes the degree of separation that people maintain between each other in social situations.... These figurative forms explore the dynamics of family life. The handling of the clay, including the making marks, capture the extremes of close bonding and demands on time and energy.

25.01.2022 Official Opening of the ANU School of Art and Design Graduating Student Exhibition tonight 6pm. Exhibition continues daily 10.30 - 5.00 until December 1. See you there!

23.01.2022 2019 Graduating Student | Henrietta Farrelly Barnett | Bachelor of Visual Arts Arrogance, power & death form the core of Farrelly-Barnett’s work. A parable for humanity’s complex interrelationship with nature, the work interrogates the misunderstandings that disturb our present & threaten our future. The unprecedented 2018-2019 Murray-Darling fish kills, attributed initially to drought, provided the impetus for Farrelly-Barnett’s work. Caused by a matrix of factors, with poo...r management compounding the effects of climate change on drought-stricken land, their impact was further intensified by the endangered position of this totemic and once-plentiful fish. Blue-and-white pottery, with its own lengthy history of appropriation, dislocation and imposition, offered the ideal lens through which to examine the externalities that have bought the Murray Cod to the brink. Slip-cast & hand-painted with individually designed motifs, the installation evokes homage to the wealth-display of traditional 18th-century Porcelain Rooms but serves also to portend the still-reverberant impact of Australia’s colonial imposition on its future.

06.01.2022 2019 Graduating Student | Cathy Zhang | Bachelor of Visual Arts | Exhibition opens 6pm November 22 Our real self is often hidden and ignored. Cathy Zhang’s interactive body of works introspectively exposes our body and mind in its raw state. Drawn to the current trend of selfie-taking, this work draws parallels when viewers' selfie image is projected onto the ceramic sculpture. The abstract surface of this piece then provokes imagery between the real and unfamiliar self. This whole assemblage exposes a visual connection between the person and their internals. "What am I?" is intended to be emotionally confronting,

04.01.2022 Congratulations to one of our graduates Shaun Hayes on another fantastic show!

03.01.2022 2019 Graduating Student | Bachelor of Visual Arts | Nathan Nhan Straying away from the construct of traditional vessels Nhan subverts the forms through contortion and deconstruction as they are seen as twisted, bodily and anamorphic. The ceramic vessels are covered in enamel paint, polyurethane foam, spray paint and ink. Constructing a narrative of non-conventional mediums that subvert the craft medium, creating a conversion within material, these vessels ultimately become static forms dancing to their experiences of their maker.

01.01.2022 2019 Graduating Student | Yang Yang Yin | Masters of Visual Arts (Advanced) My ceramic work is based on the study of Ethnomusicology, exploring cultural, philosophical and aesthetic values behind the performance of classic Chinese Opera: Kunqu. Shapes and gestures are inspired by the traditional costume of the Opera and produced to express the rhythm and movement of the music. Subtle but rich textures on the surface are shaped by the meditative process of wheel throwing. The... deconstructive method enables my work to evoke a resistance to gravity, allowing negative space to unravel and become part of the form. Music is abstract and intangible, so I want to create sculpture that transform the music from invisible to visible, but still dynamic, fluid and sinuous. Music, in its original form, travels between a human’s physical and spiritual world. Here, it is visualized in sculptural form to challenge conceptions of illusion and materiality. Flows and curves grow into three-dimensional calligraphic brushstrokes in a dismantled way, representing the accomplishment of spiritual awareness and transformation in time and space.

01.01.2022 Out on the town tonight! First we popped into the Canberra Potters' Society for Friday night supper club to hear visiting artist Ann Van Hoey talk about her work.
