Exhibition - Ceramics in the Environment

About the Event

Installed in the Craft Garden at Houston Center for Contemporary Craft (HCCC), Ceramics in the Environment features site-specific ceramic sculpture created by students from the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (MFAH)’s Glassell School of Art. Led by former HCCC resident artist Jeff Forster, the artists in his Special Topics class are tasked with exploring the narrative potential of the location and creating artwork inspired by the garden’s flora and fauna.
 
The fifth iteration of this exhibition series, this year’s show features work by the Fall 2024 student cohort: Julianna Bray, Randy Cecil, Jane Greenberg, Una Kirkpatrick, Karina “Aimee” Kudla, Alicia LeBlanc, Maria Raquel Morales, Nicole O'Bryan, Mara Cavalcanti Reid, Suzette Schutze, Franki Starr, Sabine Triplett, and Gita Vanwoerden. Visitors will see interactive sculptures inspired by avian life, an imagined visual network of a live tree, contemporary "dialogues" within and between natural elements, and thought-provoking installations that challenge perceptions about the environment.
 
Ceramics in the Environment was developed in partnership between MFAH’s Glassell School of Art and Houston Center for Contemporary Craft. The exhibition was curated by HCCC Curatorial Fellow, Zaynab Hilal.
