Votive Vessels | Lotte Schwerdtfeger
An exhibition of new works, Oxides and layered glazes on hand built stoneware
Exhibition opening Saturday 21 September and will run until 19 October.
Lotte Schwerdtfeger is an artist, currently an associate at the JamFactory Ceramics Studio, Tarndanya/Adelaide.
She is materially led across many mediums, being consistently drawn to ceramic processes.
Lotte hand builds ceramics, coiling and pinching both functional, sculptural and installation works; combining tendrils of research which span anthropology, biology, symbolism and revelry in the small psychedelic moments of existence.
Lotte is delighted by the alchemical and elemental processes of ceramics.
She is always intrigued by the role of objects, quotidian and ritual, in defining and connecting human and nonhuman experiences.
Lotte is a graduate of the Victorian College of the Arts; regularly working on commission, collaborative projects and gallery exhibitions.
Where possible all materials are salvaged, reused and recycled, working towards a zero waste practice.
