ACDCPC: Mid-Atlantic Ceramic Sculpture from the District of Columbia to Philadelphia County and Beyond

This exhibition will feature the work of thirteen sculptors. In pieces ranging from monumental statements to intimately scaled personal icons, the artists are regional, and some are international in origin, growing up in places such as Japan, Italy, and our own Hawaii. Artists indigenous to the region found inspiration in the Far East, the American Deep South, the South Pacific, and South America. Yet for all participants, iconography is strongly communicated through their imagery. The nature of the medium, clay, allows for every possible interpretation: It can appear as wood, metal, and sometimes speaks to its most basic form: mud.

According to independent curator, Cheryl Harper, “Of all mediums an artist can choose, clay allows for the widest range of expression. It can be hollow or solid, a basis for bronze casting, a wall piece or drawing, any scale, figurative or abstract, outdoors or indoors. I sought a variety of expression and intention. From my search, I found that the studio environment was more collaborative in Washington and affected outcomes, and in Philadelphia, the artists work mostly in isolation, some not showing monumental scaled pieces for years. Two of the artists, Syd Carpenter (Philadelphia) and T. Rachelle Ellis (Washington, D.C), found inspiration in African American tenant farms in the South with very different resolutions. As we lead up to a major conference on clay in Philadelphia, in 2010, I wanted to present our suburban community an interesting dialog in sculpture.” Artists include: Margaret Boozer, Laurel Lukaszewski, Novie Trump, and T. Rachelle Ellis from Washington, D.C.; Syd Carpenter, Lindsay Feuer, Carla Lombardi, Sumi Maeshimi, and Don Nakamura from Philadelphia; Dale Shuffler, Carla Lombardi, and Etta Winigrad from Chester County; Ruth Borgenicht from Southern New Jersey; and Laura Jean McLaughlin from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
