Remastered

ReMastered is the sixth in a series of collaborative exhibitions between MA students in the School of Craft and Design at the University for the Creative Arts and the Crafts Study Centre. In previous years, students selected objects to research and write about, bringing those objects together in an exhibition at the Centre. Gradually, a response component was added, with students making a piece in response to their selected object. Janet is a ceramicist who has continued her own practice while working in education for the past 25 years. Until recently her work, informed by place and materiality, has related to the vessel. Abstraction, allowing for enigmatic references, is key to her work. At present she is employing mixed media to express ideas of displacement and dis-belonging. Making with ceramics, wire and materials found in nature, she is creating built structures that resemble boundaries. These small-scale sculptures make references to the movements of people, homelessness and alienation.
