Romania

My Artwork has been Selected for the Romania Ceramics Biennale!

Yes… it is pretty exciting! I have had an artwork selected for the Cluj International Ceramics Biennale, being held in Romania between October 9 – November 3, 2013.  

This is an inaugural ceramic biennale and more about the intent and purpose of the event can be found here: http://www.ceramicsbiennale.com/2013

I submitted three artworks for selection, and the piece selected is a handbuilt pit fired work, with gold leaf and slate sliver additions…

Applicants have also been invited to submit a proposal for talks/lectures to be delivered to an International Symposium addressing the theme “Ceramic Between Tradition and Contemporaneity” to be presented to the public and students at the University of Arts and Design in Romania.

I have not been to Romania before, and, of course, would love to go, so I am ‘thinking’ that if I submit a proposal for a talk and it is accepted I will have no ‘choice’ but to go!!

So, guess what I am doing tomorrow? UUmmm, working on a proposal for a talk!

Wish me luck 🙂
