Herpes Diaries Part 2: The Gift that Keeps on Giving

Through the work I am able to reflect on the complexities which we house within our bodies. Love and hate, germs, virus, ideology and dreams, ghosts, delusions, blood and guts too. And the transference of the said junk from here to there when we commune with one another, for better or worse ;)

This is on view at @launderette.records until Sunday June 28th, go take a look 👀 by @black_kandy

Me and @strange_little_beast_ceramics are searching for ~Weird~ work from the wood kiln to be considered for an NCECA Featured Exhibition in 2026. Follow the link in my Bio to read more and apply! Deadline is June 8th at midnight EST.

Please share with ye friends ;)

Weird Woodfire showcases contemporary approaches to figuration in clay through woodfiring. The artists represented in this exhibition harness the use of atmospheric firing to underscore poetic and conceptual notions of the figure in clay. An emphasis on unconventional representation of people and animals are accentuated through the mysterious, funky and weird trajectory of the flame as it licks, marks and transforms our work… by @black_kandy
