Threshold IV, Mixed Media 2023

$1,096.00


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.

“Using the momentum of this exhibition as an agent of change itself, this piece is a new direction of exploring clay in a more painterly way through the use of a technique called nerikomi, which involves creating patterns with coloured clay, while still maintaining a subversion of classical architectural tropes as a form of escapism and fantasy," says Summers.

About the Artist

Tom Summers

Tom Summers is a queer ceramic artist and product designer currently practicing out of JamFactory in Adelaide, South Australia. His distinctive ceramic vessels are one of a kind, each being handbuilt using slabs of clay that have been coloured by pigments that are infused into the clay prior to working with it. 

His work contemplates the everyday built environment and warps his experience of place to reflect the vibrant inner world that exists in each of us. The work is also as much a colour exploration as it is an exploration of form, trying to create a harmonious balance of colour, proportion and scale to create a private, secret inner feeling.
