Glazed Realities

Glazed Realities is a group exhibition curated by Vasilis Zografos that examines contemporary ceramic practices as instruments of storytelling, experimentation and transformation. Featuring works by Nacoca Ko, Fernando de la Rocque, Jan Steenman, Heberth Sobral and Irene Venetsanou, the show foregrounds ceramic surfaces as carriers of memory, social narrative and perceptual ambiguity. Through glazing, texture and material manipulation the artists deploy sculpture and object-based installations to probe materiality, luminosity, fragility and the interplay between form and human experience.

Opening during La Nuit des Bains, Thursday 22 January, from 18:00.
