Hand Code: Makers in Proximity

Date: 

Friday, February 23, 2018, 9:00am

Repeats every day until Sat Mar 24 2018

Location: 

Gallery 224 at Harvard Ceramics Program, 224 Western Ave., Allston

Two makers, one room, one material. One is spinning pots on an electric potter’s wheel. Another is creating digital designs, sending them to a 3D printer and tending to that machine’s manners of extruding. They are both working in clay. What forms do they produce? What do these very different approaches to creating look like in contrast to one another? What does a 3D Printer look like? How does a potter work in our current time? What can be learned from seeing these two makers in proximity to one another?

Part exhibition, part performance, and 100% an open-ended question, Hand Code provides an opportunity for viewers to observe two modes of object making in clay in real time, and to contribute to a dialogue about the process.

 

Closing Reception & Panel Discussion:  Saturday March 24, 2018, 3:00pm-6:00pm.
