Process is an important aspect to creating art and often concept and form emerge from the act of making. There are many different approaches to producing artwork and it is my mission to highlight the talented carvers of our community. Once hearing about the opportunity to curate a show at Asheville Area Arts Council I knew this was my chance to shine a light on the process of reduction. Whether working in clay, wood, glass or other medium, it takes patience and understanding of the material to manipulate and find its form. As a ceramicist, porcelain is a material that resonates with me and have found a great passion exploring this technique.
I am curating an exhibition titled “Carve: Process of Reduction” The exhibition’s intention is to reveal the artists of our community working in a variety of different materials and using diverse approaches to carving. The exhibition will consist of seven different artists working with clay, wood, glass, printmaking techniques and paper. Each artist has a unique voice that speaks to the process of reduction. With both sculptural and functional objects, the exhibition will feature artworks that demonstrate how these fine artists are crafting and pushing the limits of a material that speaks to them.
Whether carving hard or malleable materials, it requires diligence and dedication. The artists I have chosen are passionate individuals committed to their craft and have spent years developing their skills and collecting specific tools to create a piece of art that reflects their point of view.
