See you soon :-)

Kaolinite Obstruction is a duo show featuring the works of Mack Baker & Avery Booth.

Avery Booth seeks to emulate the naturally disruptive ebb and flow of nature throughout her work. Avery works with a variety of materials which include plants, insects, rocks, mostly from her surrounding ecosystem. Her practice centers around an appreciation of how time and erosion affect the environment. Her sculptural assemblages demonstrate the inevitability of growth and decay.

Mack Baker is a ceramicist whose practice is concerned with the physics and aesthetics of the collapsed vessel. Their work encapsulates bodily intimacy and connection, using clay as a conduit of their sensuality. Mack’s process assesses the vulnerability of the clay body, testing the limits of the wheel thrown vessel to produce a collapse.

Avery considers how the landscape of nature inherently is a body whereas Mack considers the body to be a landscape within nature. In the moment where these works meet, there is a collision between natural growth and material collapse. These works reveal that our bodies are both static and dynamic entities within the natural world; a world determined to simultaneously evolve and destruct.

Lateral Swell

Lateral swelling pressure (LSP) develops in silty or clayey soil when the volume expansion of soil is constrained in the horizontal direction. Determination of LSP is important in designing geotechnical structures in expansive soils. Lateral Swell is a group show featuring 3 artists Jassiel Serna, Lydia Matukaitis & Jeremy Carter who have practices incorporating nature. These include but are not limited to Wood, Tajín & Clay using each as a conduit for expression. I’m excited to share with you their journeys & how they expand on what is given to us which is the earth. Adding elements of nature into your work is honoring it & each of these artists plans to do just that.
