Press Release
edit

Jeremy Laing presents new and ongoing works that revolve around and within the vessel. Mirror-vase.jpg, refers to the file name of an image recently sent to the artist. In the image, an object sits in front of a mirror; “vase” is the word we know to describe, or translate, what we see reflected. “Vase” names both the object and its image, but what the object is could perhaps best be understood by an experience of its materiality, and how it came to be. A piece of clay, thrown on a wheel, shapeshifting, turned into a vessel through the concatenation of external constraint and expansive centrifugal force, holding, in its void, a content that is the shaping of itself. Here, the gallery is a vessel for vessels – where, and through each, material and making processes serve as stand-ins for, and conduits to, experiences of personification and its translations.
