About the Item
Sculpted of earthenware paper clay, this dynamic work by Canadian artist Susan Collett is multi-fired to achieve complex surfaces. The work is rich with craquelure in hues of blue, pumpkin, black and white.
"My full time studio practice includes clay sculpture and printmaking. The work derives from interest in the tension of strength against fragility and as I push the work towards the edge of physical collapse, this theme becomes more potent. The work is hand-built and sculptural in nature. The use of light interplay provides a perceived fragility explored through stacking and channeling of hand-built clay platelets. The sculptures are often turned, tilted, built upon and re-fired, investigating the strength required for negotiating the relation between our interior and exterior worlds. Heaving, disrupted, uprooted forms hover in the space between the solid and the fluid, the fissure between order and chaos, of fluidity and brittleness. " - Susan Collett
Susan Collett, IAC, RCA, graduated with a BFA in printmaking and ceramics from the Cleveland Institute of Art winning the institute's prestigious Agnes Gund Memorial Award. Collett is a member of the International Academy of Ceramics and the Royal Canadian Academy of the Arts as well as recipient of the Winifred Shantz Award from the Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery.
While exhibiting throughout North America, Collett has also participated in residencies at the Sanbao Art Institute in Jingdezhen, China and the FULE International Ceramic Art Museum, Fuping, China.
