Traces

"Traces" brings together groundbreaking artists who push the boundaries of ceramics as a medium for social, cultural, and material exploration.Through their diverse practices, these artists treat clay as both a recorder of physical marks and a vessel for storytelling. Each piece reflects the traces left behind: by fingers pressing into the earth, by the weight of cultural traditions, by the invisible yet palpable presence of memory. Clay becomes a space where time collapses, a surface where the individual meets the collective, and a form where past, present, and future coexist.
Together, these works invite viewers to consider the traces we leave behind and the ones we carry with us. Through clay, these artists create a dialogue between mark and memory, asking how we imprint ourselves on the world and how the world, in turn, imprints itself on us.
