REFUSE CULTURE
Ian Johnston
Refuse Culture, a new body of work by ceramist Ian Johnston, examines the ‘waste stream and cultural detritus’ that has resulted from the consumer based and manufacturing societies in North America, Europe/Scandinavia and China.
Using materials, processes and local expertise available during past and future residencies in Jungdezhen, China, Medicine Hat, Canada, Philadelphia, USA, and Denmark, Ian will explore and give form to the pan-cultural paradox of refuse in a culture of global consumerism. This era of global culture and its greatest challenge, the degradation of the environment with consumption and the accompanying refuse, is the impetus for Refuse Culture.
OPENING RECEPTION FRIDAY MARCH 13 AT 7PM
