  Paula Kovarik: Stitching as meditation and protest

  Aug 13, 20261h 8mS7

  Memphis-based fiber artist Paula Kovarik creates layered quilted and sculptural works by cutting up her own quilts and repurposing them as raw material. Her practice channels memory, politics and the news cycle into stitch and line, favouring process over finished product. In this conversation, she reflects on her evolving 3D work, a recent Japan residency, and the day she took a chainsaw to a piece in protest.

  Craig Underhill: What the tide gives back

  Aug 6, 20261h 8mS7

  Cornwall-based ceramicist Craig Underhill creates slab-built forms that blur the line between sculpture and vessel, their surfaces layered with marks and colour drawn straight from the Cornish coastline. In this conversation, Craig reflects on thirty-five years of practice, sketchbooks, glazes, and a brand new body of work that has him immersing raw, unfired clay in the sea to see what the tide gives back.
