Ceramic sculptors and makers in Lay of The Land
Breaking down the boundaries between contemporary and applied artOne of the key components for C&C’s latest exhibition Lay of the Land in King's Lynn and the reason so many visitors have praised the quality of the work in the exhibition is the significant contribution made by artists and makers who work in ceramics. Thanks to artists like James Evans, Kathryn Hearn, and Nessie Stonebridge the exhibition marks the degree to which applied and contemporary art practice have transgressed during the last twenty-five years, confounding conventions for the medium, and opening up new possibilities for landscape as a genre.
