We invite ceramic artists exclusively from Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin to submit works based on the theme "Timeless Bodies" for an upcoming annual juried exhibition at Oliva Gallery in Chicago, IL.
Timeless Bodies seeks work that interprets the human form - through sculptural realism, abstraction or vessel construction. Throughout history, the human form has been symbolized as a container of life, emotion, and spirit, reflecting both fragility and resilience. How does the body hold and convey our stories, memories or cultural history? Artists are encouraged to celebrate the interplay of form and storytelling in clay.
