We’re delighted to have as a current Artist in Residence and to host her upcoming exhibition in our Pool Room Gallery at Auckland Studio Potters.
Holding Space, Time and Place is a sample of the work created by Sarah Harrison during her 3 month residency at ASP that will draw to a close at the end of September. Sarah has operated her studio ‘Shoal Bay Pottery’ in relative isolation out on Aotea, Great Barrier Island for 30 years now and has relished the opportunity to have the use of a studio space in the foreign environment of the city. Her main objective for her time at ASP was connection with the local clay community whilst gently continuing her practice of high fired domestic ware with a sprinkle of experimentation along the way, in response to the new setting. Sarah’s plan after a few more ceramics related activities on the mainland is to return home in time for Summer with a head full of inspiration and a whole list of new clay friends from ASP that she’s looking forward to holding space for out on the island.
Opening 4pm-6pm Tuesday 10th of September. all welcome.
