BODIES OF CLAY: AM I WEIRD?

"Weird" is the word that comes to mind when composing an exhibition of figurative work in clay. Weird is the struggle since WWII to maintain an image/self image of the human body. Bodies of Clay deals with absence, abstraction, fragmentation, and distorion of the human image as a reaction to the devastation we humans are capable of causing each other. This exhibition also shows an attempt to heal the image/self image through figures in clay less damaged, even weirdly playful.
