SUMMARY:Carly Gibran | Taking Notice
DESCRIPTION:Reception: Thursday\, September 10\, 6-8 pm \n\n\n\nLocation: Gary R. Libby Gallery\, Hand Art Center \n\n\n\n\nExhibition Statement \n\n\n\nThe act of noticing is a lost art. This exhibition is a document of what captures my attention in my daily life. Breezeblock compositions on evening walks\, natural and created patterns\, birds in my garden\, and objects found in nature all contribute to my personal visual library. Taking notice of details in my environment is a practice – the natural impulse is to rush\, to assume\, to zone out and to be distracted.  \n\n\n\nWorking in porcelain presents challenges that are less present with other clay bodies. It is notoriously fussy\, with a material memory that leans toward extreme warping and cracking. Despite these frustrations\, porcelain’s brightness and translucency keep me engaged.  \n\n\n\nArtist Biography  \n\n\n\nCarly Gibran began working in clay in 1997 and earned a degree in Studio Art and Art History from Stetson University in 2003. She makes functional and sculptural porcelain works that are inspired by the natural world. She has taught ceramics in art centers and schools for 20 years. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRecent works by Carly Gibran. Courtesy of the artist.
