JANET FIELDHOUSE AT CHAU CHAK WING MUSEUM

Janet Fieldhouse’s artist talk on her work commissioned work for the Kerameikos exhibition at the University of Sydney’s Chau Chak Wing Museum is now available for listening.

Each of the seven artists in this exhibition were invited to explore the Museum’s historic and diverse collections during a week-long intensive residency, collaborating closely with the curatorial team.  The resulting commissioned works provide a fresh perspective on some of Australia’s oldest collections, challenging historical narratives and pushing the boundaries of ceramic practice today.

In ancient Athens, the Kerameikos was the potter’s quarter, a hub of innovation where artisans produced some of the most sought-after ceramics of the Mediterranean region.
Kerameikos at the Chau Chak Wing Museum creates a contemporary potters’ quarter within the Museum.
