Naked highlights the work of five contemporary ceramists: Charles Birnbaum, from New York City, NY; Lindsay Feuer, from Philadelphia, PA; Heather Knight, from Asheville, NC; Jennifer McCurdy, from Vineyard Haven, MA; and Kamila Szczesna, from Galveston, TX. Each of these artists works in all-white porcelain, using no colored glazes to decorate their objects, so the material, form and surface of each piece become the primary focal points. This stripped-down or “naked” body of work reveals the sublime qualities of porcelain: delicate, translucent, smooth and full of possibility.
