V&A research trip
I had booked to attend a half-day symposium called What Is Seen and What Is Not: Expressions on Class, Space and Identity with the artist Osman Yousefzada to hear more about his work exploring displacement, migration and climate change. Unfortunately the talk was cancelled but as I had already arrived in London, ceramic artist Sam Lucas let me jump on her plans for the day. We spent some time at the V&A to see the Illustration awards and the ceramics collection while talking about our research. I also tagged along to the James Freeman gallery to see the Eden exhibition that includes mind-blowing work by Janpeter Muilwijk, Claire Curneen,
Sikelela Owen, Carolein Smit, Olivia Kemp. Dark and beautifully intriguing đź‘Ś
Very grateful to Sam and I am fascinated and excited by her PhD research exploring ceramics and ADHD women’s body image.
