SUMMARY:The Traveling Waffle House Interviews
DESCRIPTION:The Traveling Waffle House Interviews\nBy artist Sheryl Bassman\nOn view: Mar 21 – Apr 18\nOpening: Sat\, Mar 21 | 3-5pm \n\nExhibition Statement:\nI have had an obsession with the Waffle House and its ageless presence for as long as I can\nremember. I spent the majority of my life waitressing and traveling around the country and have\nhad the greatest experiences meeting people from all different walks of life. I’ve learned that one\nwears many hats as a waitress working with the public. You are a therapist listening to\nstrangers’ problems; a salesperson selling items on the menu; a mediator between the customer\nand cooks when the food comes out wrong; a housekeeper keeping the restaurant clean and\nsanitized; a cashier responsible for bills and payments. All of this must be done with a smile on\nyour face. Despite all this\, serving is commonly looked down upon as a mediocre job and not a\ncareer – something one does when they cannot find any other work.\nThrough words and portraits\, I give recognition to each waitress/waiter. Each portrait is\nillustrated in ballpoint pen that waitress/ers use\, and completed on bold yet simple black and\nyellow Waffle House colors and is accompanied by a short story of what they shared about\nthemselves to me.

SUMMARY:The Ephemeral Waltz of the Butterfly
DESCRIPTION:The Ephemeral Waltz of the Butterfly\nBy Gina Lucia\nOn view: Mar 21 – Apr 18\nOpening: Sat\, Mar 21 | 3-5pm\n\nExhibition statement:\nOur bodies by construction imitate objects in nature that keep us alive. However\, we are as ephemeral as the leaves on a tree and as we evolve\, change form and respond to environmental changes\, we shed our leaves\, our skin and transform\, wither and die. The very essence of our existence is as ephemeral as our world\, our planet and all of the living things in the eco-system. Human kind is a part of the earth as are all of the creatures\, insects\, birds\, plants and other organic matter. Though we believe that we matter more than all of other living matter\, human kind is nothing more than organic matter. Organic matter resembling all other life forms: the roots of trees resemble our lungs\, like waterways and estuaries flow for plant life and other life to thrive. Small ventricles of life that expand and contract bring air\, food and water to our bodies and nourish our organs. As larvae transform into caterpillars and caterpillars into butterflies and the seasons transform into one another there is a rebirth of matter and a transformation that imitates nature and nature imitates man\, all fragile\, beautiful and ephemeral; such is the ephemeral waltz of the butterfly \nAbout the artist:\nLucia’s mixed media collage work fuses commercial and fine art techniques. Hand drawn sketches are combined with found objects\, photography\, hand-rendered typography and presented in a thought-provoking photomontage. Inspired by music\, Surrealism and the Freudian concept of free association\, personal experiences and heartbreak\, everyday encounters with objects people and places\, the current social and political climate\, her collages are spontaneous juxtapositions of unlikely things. She incorporates elements of pop culture; viscera; nature; animals; insects; and other eclectic ephemera into her work. The harmonious commingling of both digital technology and fine art techniques has allowed her to redefine and refine her art.\nWebsite

SUMMARY:WILD CLAY
DESCRIPTION:WILD CLAY\nCurated by John Reinking and Marg Diaz\nOn view: Mar 21 – Apr 18 (CLOSED MAR 28 FOR AN EVENT)\nOpening: Sat\, Mar 21 | 3-5pm\nExhibition statement:\n\n“Wild clay” refers to clay that is not commercially available\, but instead has been personally sourced from the earth. It must be discovered\, dug\, used in its raw state – or sometimes\, refined – and then tested. Unlike commercially processed clay\, wild clay enables the maker to tap into the unique characteristics of a specific place — its colors\, textures\, and material properties — revealing the distinct identity of the local landscape. \nClay is intrinsically linked to anthropology: we understand much about societies of the past through their use of clay. Local “wild” clay offers discovery of local history\, ecology\, geology\, science\, and a contemporary view of art. In most cases local wild clay is infused with such color and character incomparable to commercial clay. \nWorking with wild clay fosters a deeper connection to the long lineage of makers who\, for thousands of years\, shaped and reshaped their worlds through this material. It offers a way to step outside the relentless cycle of consumerism and mass production\, reminding us that art and ecology are intertwined and fostering awareness of our materials\, where they come from\, and our impact on the land. \nAbout the curators:\n\nJohn Reinking\nJohn Reinking is a New Jersey based ceramic artist whose work focuses on harvesting local materials to create functional and sculptural ceramic work. Reinking embraces clay in its rawest sense — from locally dug earth to refined stoneware — and fires in his woodkiln. His pieces bear the mark of fire\, ash\, and flame\, transforming simple forms into vessels of permanence and ritual. Reinking’s art is rooted in honesty and process: vessels that carry the story of local earth and fire.\nWebsite\nInstagram \nMarg Diaz\nMarg Diaz is a ceramic artist who blends her chemistry background with playful curiosity. She experiments with wild clay\, studying its absorption and firing behavior while embracing its unpredictability. Her vessels celebrate both material exploration and the childlike delight that first drew her to clay.\nWebsite\nInstagram \nthe artists:\nAlan Willoughby: @alanwilloughby1\, www.shustermanwilloughby.com\nKimberly Tsui\nMatt Zimmerman: @walnutstpottery\nSimon Keller: @s_keller3180\, www.cone9colab.com\nShinobu Habauchi: @shinobu_habauchi\nMasha Belova\nKeiko Inouye: @keikopots\nYuri Gershtein: @yurigershtein\nSarah M Gilbert: @monsters_studio_\, www.sarahmgilbert.art\nJordan Taylor: @jordans_ceramics\, www.jordantaylorclay.com\nZack Sierke: @zachsierkepottery\nHitomi Shibata: @studiotouya\, www.studiotouya.com\nTakuro Shibata: @takuroshibataceramics\, www.studiotouya.com\nHideo Mabuchi: @firemousehm\, www.hideo.world\nRobert King: @robertkingstudio\, www.robertkingstudio.com\nIlona Golvina: @mugly.nyc\, www.ilonagolovina.com
