Get ready for a sculptural showdown in Salford as three incredible ceramic artists—Aliyah Hussain, Paloma Proudfoot, and Renee So—bring their solo exhibitions to life. These artists are not just playing with clay; they're firing up conversations about feminism, identity, and a bit of nifty storytelling. If you thought ceramics were all about teapots and dinnerware, think again. Here, you'll find imaginative works that embrace the weird and wonderful. Each artist uses their craft to explore contemporary narratives, spicing things up with humor and a touch of the surreal.
Aliyah Hussain is diving deep into plant horror and feminist vibes with "She was waiting for her roots." Picture creeping ceramic vines and roots testing the gallery walls as ambient sounds from her clay sculptures create an otherworldly atmosphere. Paloma Proudfoot is all set to unravel the gendered history of medicine in her show "Lay Figure," mixing her skills in clothes patternmaking with ceramic reliefs and a couple of live performances, because why not? And then there's Renee So, presenting oversized perfume bottles that harken back to their stylish ancestors, with a twist of playful irony. So creatively blends traditional craft with a feminist flair, responding to historical images with a modern touch that's sure to make you smile. So, mark your calendars for a day of clay-driven shenanigans.
