PAST EXHIBITION
The cup, one of ceramics more iconic images, has been used as a metaphor, a sculptural element, a sculptural foundation and a functional daily piece of dinnerware. Partnering with New Harmony Clay Project, we have accepted over fifty submissions for our first annual cup exhibition to be juried by Paul Wandless and invited additional artists to participate, many including past resident artists of New Harmony Clay Project. Two awards will be given. Best in show will be given the “Overflowing” award of $250. Five honorable mentions will receive the “To the Brim” award of $50 each. Whether you choose to fill your cups with beverages, food, pencils, or ideology, this exhibition will feature a multitude of handmade creations from artists across the country. Filled Up will be on display in person and available online at nhgallery.com Saturday, December 5, 2020 through Friday, January 29, 2021.
