This exhibition was a collection of 'max project's' from second and third year ceramic students in the BVA/BCA. The concept of the maz project is to use minimal clay to fill maximum amount of [wall] space. All but one of the students used slip to accomplish this, either my slip casting, slip-trailing, painting slip directly onto the wall etc etc.
I presented my slip-trailed lacy beakers also with solid form to create a contradiction or paradox. These were presented on three thick shelves (to avoid brackets) protruding out from the wall (short edge to wall). These shelves were quite high, with the far right shelf sitting lower than the other two. On each shelf i presented a row of solid forms alongside a row of slip-trailed forms. The two higher shelves were occupied by the larger beaker size, and the other was filled with the smaller size.
Overall a great versatile and intresting exhibition, although it was somewhat let down by one or two non-responsive/lazy participants who were very late with installing work etc etc. We had an official closing of the show, as opposed to opening, which was last Wednesday, and it was great. Unfortunately i have no pics of this exhibition or event, but ill see what i can do.
ba-bye!
