An art installation featuring various colorful, textured sculptures resembling abstract floral arrangements in a gallery setting.

Jody Greenman-Barber’s works push the boundaries of ceramic materials and forms, offering new ways of thinking about contemporary ceramics.

The Saskatchewan-based artist creates works that are technically and conceptually challenging, beautiful, chaotic and wild. These images are from her recent exhibition at the Moose Jaw Museum & Art Gallery. See more on her Instagram, here.

The Moose Jaw exhibition, Flow, consisted of two separate bodies of works: Dancing the Boondangle, a series of drawings and large-scale ceramic sculptures, and The Making of Meaning, which features new playful works that are fantastical in form and push the clay medium to extremes.
