"Brooke Noble: You and I and Things That Fly"
2010-01-09 until 2010-01-30
Clay Art Center
Port Chester, NY, USA United States of America

Clay Art Center is proud to present Brooke Noble: You and I and Things That Fly, a solo exhibition featuring evocative narrative functional pottery and wall work that celebrate a series of winged wonders by New York ceramic artist Brooke Noble. The exhibit, held in the Choy Gallery, will run from January 9 ˆ 30, 2010. Additionally, in the upstairs Henry‚s Project space, we will be hosting Delicate Raku, featuring Raku fired works by seven current CAC artists and students.

In the gallery will be a plethora of whimsical and colorful forms, each telling a story or a part of a story, evoking our emotions and jogging our memories. Brooke states "You & I and Things That Fly is an exhibit that celebrates the 'winged wonders' within our universe that spend a majority of their time out of our common periphery. Birds regularly adorn the surface of my functional pottery and ceramic wall works, acting as a metaphor for human experience and social interaction. This body of work expands beyond the ornithological theme to include anything that may occupy the sky. As with everything that migrates or strays from its home, nest or point of origin, there is the inevitable return from the air to the earth and eventually - home."

Brooke Noble (b. 1979) received her B.F.A. from Syracuse University and attended Southern Illinois University in Edwardsville, Illinois for her M.F.A. Between degrees, she was a resident artist at three studio art centers: Vermont Clay Studio, Anderson Ranch Arts Center, (CO.) and Bluseed Studios of Saranac Lake, NY. Ceramics has taken Noble to many destinations both nationally and internationally. Highlights for her include kiln-building at Good Hope Plantation in Jamaica and Studying Abroad in Oaxaca State, Mexico during Graduate School. Brooke‚s work has been exhibited in many reputable galleries nationwide and she also enjoys teaching classes and workshops to both adults and children in the Adirondack communities Saranac Lake and Lake Placid, NY. Noble is passionate about her surroundings and values the social interaction of making and sharing a meal while taking part in the daily ritual of utilizing handmade pots, commonly made by someone she holds dear.

Clay Art Center is a not-for-profit ceramic art organization offering exhibitions, clay classes for adults and children, studio spaces for clay artists and outreach programs in the community. It is located in the heart of Port Chester at 40 Beech Street, Port Chester, NY 10573. Gallery hours are Monday through Saturday, 10am-4pm or by appointment.
