As one of the oldest and most ubiquitous mediums, Vessel brings together a group of Australian artists to examine the role of contemporary ceramics in our society.
Historically used as a means to contain, ceramics were items that would hold special objects - grains, spices, wine, rice, earth or ashes. Although their form and function has changed and expanded over time, ceramics have and continue to act as vessels; whether created to physically hold important goods, or as a symbolic repository of memory, imbued with an inherent source of comfort for the possessor.
The contributing artists for VESSEL are located and working across Australia, bringing together different methods, practices, and approaches to the ceramic medium.
