Events Description
Representing a continuum of storytelling on clay objects, Emma Bickers and Sami Tsang use illustrations, motifs and figures to express personal narratives and insight into their thoughts and ideas. Bickers and Tsang record the drama of daily life (both exterior and interior), exploring memory, emotion and imagination. Their works are instruments of storytelling and bearers of meaning.
For Bickers, her ceramic vessels are an expression of insatiable yearning with each piece carrying a different link to the many expressions felt when in a state of infatuation. With an emphasis on the female gaze, these pots celebrate the sweetness of queer desire while also admiring the similarities of a new crush blooming to the many flowers that pop up in spring.
Tsang resists her traditional Chinese role by gathering stories of struggles in domestic encounters and private narratives. When her heart allows, she converts these stories using cartoonish-like gestures and straightforward imagery to help make the memories bearable, revealing the raw emotional experiences we all share.
