MADE OUT OF PLACE
Made Out of Place is a live project space, featuring work emanating from the experimental international artists’ exchange project Heart:Beat. This evocative installation, created for, and with the help of, the Indian Ceramics Triennale, is the result of a short residency within the workshop facility at the Ceramics Department of the Indian Institute of Craft and Design, Jaipur and the project space within the Jawahar Kala Kendra. During this residency, British Ceramics Biennial resident artist, Joanne Ayre, and Warli artists, Ramesh and Rasika Hengadi, supported by project creative director Barney Hare Duke, have worked collaboratively to devise, design and fabricate new work.
Drawing on the shared experience of the Heart:Beat project, the installation includes raw materials, tiles, bricks, ceramic, moulds, working processes, objects and paintings, with film and sound. It includes work created off-site by the other UK-based, Heart:Beat project artists Stephen Dixon (ceramicist), Jasleen Kaur (artist), Johnny Magee (film-maker), Jason Singh (musician, sound artist). The works together constitute a body of work— Made Out Of Place and gives impetus to the idea of developing local making, learning and exhibition spaces in both Bapugaon and Stoke-on-Trent where cultural production will continue to take place and be developed.
