Allison Luce has recently joined the tallented team of instructors at Creative Art Exchange. She will be teaching our handbuilding classes, and maybe some printmaking classes later.
Her work as a sculptor and printmaker has been featured in numerous exhibits, most recently in a solo show at Visions Gallery in Albany, New York.
Allison studied at Ohio University and received her MFA from Hunter College.
"My artwork is about the ephemeral nature of our existence and the belief in the promise of eternal life," says Allison. "I am interested in creating a dialogue between the beauty and brevity of life and the mystery of eternity. I work primarily in ceramics. All of my pieces are built by hand, fired and painted. The forms are hollow inside while appearing to be solid. The pieces are actually very fragile although they appear to be study and indestructible. It is this play that creates the basis of my work.
Recently, I have been exploring issues of mortality through printmaking. In these images, I hope to create timeless imagery that references memory. I am interested in the way memories grow, change and fade over time. Memories are so powerful, yet memory itself can be fleeting. In these prints, I hope to capture the delicate and transient things in life that lead us to ponder eternity".
Please help me in welcoming Allison to our exciting new art center!
