Parts of a whole (2024) KIT FORM, Bristol

Sculptural that reach across time, blurring the aesthetic structure of historic artefacts with contemporary industrial materials. 

The title of the exhibition, derived from the word “sherd”; references an archaeological term for a piece of pottery, broken off from a larger whole ceramic object. Sherds are the most common artefacts left behind by past civilisations. Sherds are parts of the larger story from which we are able to understand and interpret how people lived. The exhibition asks what contemporary sherds will be left behind and how they will be understood or reassembled.
