Featuring artworks by some of the leading sculptors and innovators working with ceramics in the UK today, join us for our next exhibition ‘Subversive Forms: Revolutionary approaches to clay’.
‘Subversive Forms’ will shine a spotlight on contemporary artists who push the boundaries of possibility with clay. Each selected artist disrupts and manipulates traditional ceramic preconceptions, creating enigmatic artworks that push the medium beyond the functional, and using clay as a non-apologetic material for sculpture.
The exhibition features work by the following artists:
Dan Allen, Felicity Aylieff, Kelly Allsopp, Halima Cassell, Matthew Chambers, Claire Curneen, Richard Deacon, Laura Ford, Keith Harrison, Mimi Joung, Jonathan Keep, Nicholas Lees, Claire Loder, Sam Lucas, Peter Randall Page, Sarah Purvey, Matt Smith, Jo Taylor, Annie Turner, Patricia Volk, and Maria Wodjat.
📅 Saturday 15 November – Saturday 21 February
⏲️ Monday-Saturday, 10am-4pm
🎟️ Free entry
