The Place of Objects

Written In Clay

2025 Essay, “A Home for Objects”, Written In Clay, 2025
In 2024, editors Stephanie Rebick and Michael Prokopow of “The Place of Objects, the John David Lawrence Collection” catalogue for Written In Clay, the 2025 exhibition at Vancouver Art Gallery, invited colleagues of John Lawrence to write about what interested them in his collection. I chose to write about how his mindful practice of collection has provided and protected invaluable information in identifying BC ceramicists and their work, and laid the foundation for the BC Ceramic Mark Registry.
