Works by Philip Matthews
Artist Reception:
Sunday, January 12th from 2 - 4 pm
The Troy-Hayner Cultural Center is pleased to present Order and Fire. The exhibit of pottery by Troy artist Philip Matthews will be on display January 10th through February 23rd. A reception honoring the artist is scheduled for Sunday, January 12th from 2:00 to 4:00 pm. Attending the reception is a wonderful way to meet the artist and gain insight into his work and process. The reception and exhibit are free and open to the public.
Artist Philip Matthews has always been interested in the intersection of art and functionality, specifically everyday ceramic objects as a canvas for visual exploration including bold graphics and clean lines. Spontaneous color and dramatic contrast. Order and Fire was inspired by the juxtaposition of these visual languages on a functional surface. A combination of Raku and traditional techniques, as well as vinyl resists and open flame were used to produce visually rich and tactile surfaces that value pleasing forms and utilitarian functionality.
