Clay on Country celebrates the enthusiasm for ceramic practice in the central desert region. A diverse and eclectic survey, the exhibition includes over forty artists, the majority of whom have made new work for the show. Some are established ceramic
artists, some are reconnecting with the medium after a hiatus, others are incorporating clay as a medium in their practice for the first time. All have produced accomplished, insightful and contemporary works that reflect the culturally and historically rich and complex region where they live and work. Clay on Country was developed by Artback NT to coincide with the 16th Australian Ceramics Triennale held in Alice Springs in July 2022. Curated by Visual Arts staff, Jo Foster and Neridah Stockley, it is a celebration of clay, community, culture and creativity.
