FormCadenceProfile by Jennifer Martin
Opened August 19, 2005
This exhibit will include a wide range of decorative forms inspired by traditional functional objects. Martin celebrates distortion, disfigurement, and alterations, reversing the negative connotations of these words by creating works that are sensuous and rhythmic. The vessel forms in particular embody clear figurative references with their dynamic profiles, while also offering captivating negative spaces created by close groupings.
Please join us for the opening reception on Friday, August 19 from 6-10pm. The exhibit will be on display through September 10, 2005. In conjunction with the exhibit, Jennifer will be leading a two day demonstration workshop where she explains her process, inspiration, and thinking relative to the work.
Images of individual works for this past exhibit are not available.

"Jennifer is always storming ahead, an incredibly giving educator, and one of the hardest working and most unpretentiously thoughtful artists we have ever met," notes MudFire founder Luba Sharapan. "She is one of Atlanta's hottest new talents, and is steadily gaining broader recognition with recent and upcoming showings and residencies at some of the nation's most prestigious ceramics venues. We have been working with Jennifer for several years, and are incredibly excited to see her building such momentum around her career."
The gallery exhibit and workshop are the culmination of an intensive six month Artist In Residence program which Jen is completing in September before heading to Anderson Ranch for a six month residency there.
