SUMMARY:Natalie Gerber: load
DESCRIPTION:As an artist and a maker\, Natalie Gerber is interested in metamorphosis\, flux\, and endless cycles of becoming\, learning\, and unlearning. In this new\, site-specific installation\, Gerber brings together ceramic and textile to consider the transformative potential of weight\, gravity\, and duration. \nload begins with a constellation of ceramic forms that alternately evoke rocks\, eggs\, or celestial bodies. The forms are slip-cast\, a process wherein liquid clay is poured into a mold\, forming a skin-like surface which is revealed when the mold is released. Close inspection of the ceramics reveal the gradations within Gerber’s process\, particularly the slow deterioration of the slip-cast molds. Suspended above the ceramic forms is a sculptural silk lattice that cascades down the space akin to a net\, veil\, or shroud. To create the lattice\, Gerber laser-cuts individual modules of fused silk with a pattern that allows the two-dimensional fabric to expand into three-dimensions when pinned together and draped. In turn\, the silk lattice will evolve slowly across the duration of the installation\, gradually expanding like a lung or a ribcage. \nWhile the body is not represented directly\, it imbues Gerber’s work\, appearing in the dimpled flesh of the ceramics\, and the corporeal drape and fascia-like web of the silk lattice. Like the fallible\, malleable human body\, her work is never fixed or static either. Rather\, it is continuously shaped and re-shaped by the unrelenting forces of gravity and time.

SUMMARY:Natalie Gerber: load
DESCRIPTION:As an artist and a maker\, Natalie Gerber is interested in metamorphosis\, flux\, and endless cycles of becoming\, learning\, and unlearning. In this new\, site-specific installation\, Gerber brings together ceramic and textile to consider the transformative potential of weight\, gravity\, and duration. \nload begins with a constellation of ceramic forms that alternately evoke rocks\, eggs\, or celestial bodies. The forms are slip-cast\, a process wherein liquid clay is poured into a mold\, forming a skin-like surface which is revealed when the mold is released. Close inspection of the ceramics reveal the gradations within Gerber’s process\, particularly the slow deterioration of the slip-cast molds. Suspended above the ceramic forms is a sculptural silk lattice that cascades down the space akin to a net\, veil\, or shroud. To create the lattice\, Gerber laser-cuts individual modules of fused silk with a pattern that allows the two-dimensional fabric to expand into three-dimensions when pinned together and draped. In turn\, the silk lattice will evolve slowly across the duration of the installation\, gradually expanding like a lung or a ribcage. \nWhile the body is not represented directly\, it imbues Gerber’s work\, appearing in the dimpled flesh of the ceramics\, and the corporeal drape and fascia-like web of the silk lattice. Like the fallible\, malleable human body\, her work is never fixed or static either. Rather\, it is continuously shaped and re-shaped by the unrelenting forces of gravity and time.
