Collapse features ceramic assemblages by Jessica Kreutter that consider the cycle of decay and renewal. Kreutter’s work explores memory and the passage of time through figurative and organic forms that exist in a space between growth and decomposition. Her forms are the result of a playful manipulation of porcelain fragments that are fused through firing and glazing, allowing the structures to fall under the weight of their accumulations. Similar to how the body merges with the earth to nourish future gardens, loss and destruction become a pathway which allows a new horizon to emerge. In her work Kreutter asks, “after the collapse, what is possible?” to reveal different possibilities for how to imagine the world.
