Out of Line
The concept 鈥淥ut of Line鈥� calls upon each of us as individuals or as a society to rethink, to challenge, to rebel, to question and to change leadership, teaching, professional development, and material conception. We are living in a world of accelerated technological advancement and what was impossible becomes applicable just about every day. It is not possible to predict the future since the steps that change our progress are not linear and so it is harder to be prepared and therefore requires flexible thought processes to define the new boundaries.
In addition, the world is more 鈥渃ompact鈥� and there is human interaction that crosses countries and continents making the world a 鈥済lobal village鈥� exposed to different cultures daily. Emigration, traveling, displacement, conflict are now common concepts, but each one is a catalyst to think 鈥渙ut of bounds鈥� while values such as camaraderie, family, solidarity, history, friendship, and alliance receive a new meaning.
The exhibition challenges the makers to dare, to stretch and to break the bounds of the clay, the personal language, technology, concept and to undermine, challenge and examine a new reality. The works show new forms created in the fire or the unconventional combination of ceramic materials as well as personal and collective ideas looking inwards or observing actual reality. Concepts such as fragmented and whole, traditional and contemporary, nature as a metaphor for human characteristics and consumerism are infused with unconventional meaning in the field of ceramics and so they are 鈥淥ut of Line鈥�.
