In this new body of work Grishin-Selzer combines soft paste porcelain and lush glaze to figure a cultural landscape fraught with the classic tensions between love and loss; pleasure and fear; beauty and death. The porcelain sculpture becomes a vehicle to express our longings and uncertainties about contemporary life: both an object of desire and the remains of a fragile history.

Opening Thursday 25 May, 6-8pm. Artist talks 5:30pm
To be opened by Penny Modra, editor, Three Thousand and Right Angle Publishing.
