About the Item

White Earthenware 58 x 30 x 15 cm 22 7/8 x 11 3/4 x 5 7/8 in ----------- "Working as a hybrid artist and curator, the core of my practice is unpicking the work of establishment organisations and shifting their – and their visitors’ – points of reference. Using techniques of Institutional Critique and Artist Intervention, the familiar is made unfamiliar and power structures are brought to light. Using craft, with its connotations of the amateur, accessibility and gender and exploiting its place in the art world, the work celebrates the mainstream and also unsettles it, taking objects from their intended roles and repurposing them in alternative situations and narratives. Through re-appropriation and reinterpretation, the work aims to question the master narratives we get told and provide a space in which marginalised viewpoints are given space and alternative and contradictory conclusions can be made."
