“Vessels” Exhibition
The Horticultural Society of New York
This event has ended.
A group exhibition of recent works by five NY-based ceramic sculptors, ranging from emerging to the firmly established.
The artists are influenced by traditional ceramic objects, from storage vessels, to pots and planters, to vases, but use the medium to defy prevailing associations with decoration and utility.
From Brie Ruais’ sculptural performances to Nicole Cherubini’s pot assemblages, each artist in Vessels finds unique ways to mold clay to successfully evoke and challenge ceramic convention to examine entangled issues of body, function, craft, domesticity, and beauty.
