Pia Murphy
A great big shape and a smaller one
26 May – 17 Jun. 2017
Pia Murphy’s current practice ranges from sculptural to functional and wearable ceramics, Murphy forms animate characters, vessels, and everyday objects through a nebulous approach to making: becoming absorbed in the malleability of her materials, and embracing the unexpected in the transformative firing process. Her penchant for unpredictability as an integral component of each step of the process has been her mainstay since her days working with acid and copper as a printmaker.
