During a 2013 residency at Medalta in Medicine Hat, Canada, Australian based artist Vipoo Srivilasa was seeking a way to bring fellow artists together. His compulsion for connection with other makers necessitated a simple and effective mechanism, ingeniously Srivilasa chose to invite fellow residents to make a modest, universal object as a way of both getting to know each other and celebrating their shared passion and profession. The object? A spoon!
The final collection, will be presented as a group in Object: Spoon
in the second venue of Ceramic Top 40 | New & Selected Works at
Harvard Ceramics in Allston, Massachusetts, USA.
Generated by his
basic human need for friendship in a new community, Srivilasa has
inspired an international engagement between established and
international ceramicists from 16 countries in this collaboration
OBJECT: SPOON.
