Draggin’ The Line, Austin Riddle, earthenware, 2023 - (Archie Bray Resident Artist - @queencityclay - 2023) #nceca2023 - really nice work here…. …………………..Very few artists here (if any) seem to be thinking of the work as parts and pierces in relationship to a larger whole… (it maybe due to only seeing “some” of the work on exhibit….but it’s as if the whole world exists in only one place , at one time-- in one pot (it may) for most - and they are nice too - but so self contained that it’s hard to get into the same space with the artist - these larger multiples seem to be more open and inviting in my opinion…. Great work all around but this one is one of my faves at this conference…. @austinriddlepottery (at Queen City Clay) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp-pY_Zu0DR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
