NCECA Phoenix

I just returned from NCECA in Phoenix, Arizona, a beautiful city surrounded by mountains. I met lots great people including Claire Twomy, Andrew Martin, Josh Dewese, Andy Brayman, Christie Brown, Gail Heidel, and others. The trip overall was AMAZING! So much great work at all the galleries. I have here pictures from the Archie Bray opening, The NCECA Biennial show including the regular exhibit of Ceramic Research Center where it was being held, the Santa Fe Clay show, and the exhibition space in the convention center. The artists in the exhibition space were all performance pieces which carried on over the four days of the conference so the space was in a constant evolution as the work came together. I was fortunate to be able to volunteer with one of the artists Gail Hiedel who's work was an arrangement of prefabricated terracotta sewage pipes. The work was a commentary on urban expnasion in the city of Phoenix. It was great to have had that opportunity.
