This piece is a part of Tracing Change, a group exhibition showcasing the work of artists from the Modern Times community and beyond. Tracing Change invites both artists and audience to trace back through thoughts and experiences, and experience a gratitude or curiosity for the ability to grow, transmute and transform.


“"Metamorphosis Monolith" parallels the ceramic process, where clay starts as raw material and is manipulated and shaped into a refined form. The process reflects the transformative journey of change in human life, from formless beginnings to resilience in the face of adversity. Just as clay is shaped, our emotions and behaviours are influenced by the forces of change,” says Ben-Or.

About the Artist

Erez Ben-Or

Erez Ben-Or is a ceramic artist who was born in Israel and has been based in Sydney for the past 25 years. In 2007, he graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Art (first-class honors) from the National Art School, Sydney and has a background working in graphic design.

Ben-Or's preferred medium is clay. The Modernist period and Brutalist architecture are both sources of inspiration. Another influence is his love of science fiction films, particularly those set in dystopian futures.

Ben-Or's work is hand-built, using a clay slab technique which he finds more suited to constructing his forms. For Ben-Or, the slab has an immediacy and materiality similar to concrete that he finds appealing. Whilst his work is often finished with the raw clay body exposed on outside surfaces, he does occasionally finish his work using slips and dry glazes and only opts to glaze the work on the inside so it maintains a degree of functionality.
