Virtual Artist and
Curators Conversation: Phoebe Cummings, Susannah Baker-Smith, and
Susan Bright
Friday, June 14, 2:30 p.m. Stream it live
Join the artist
Phoebe Cummings, together with curators Susannah Baker-Smith and
Susan Bright, for a virtual discussion of
Cummings’s short films Towards a Flower,
featured in the exhibition “Don’t we touch each other just to prove we
are still here?”: Photography and Touch,
on view at Art on Hulfish through August 4. Cummings explores
ceramics as a time-based medium. Each intricately hand-modeled work
is durational, and the same clay may be recycled and reused in
different locations. The traces of physical interaction between
body and raw material are always present, and the clay takes an
active role in the work, enacting its own slow performance as it
drips, dries, shrinks, and cracks.
