MAKE/SHIFT The art of material transformation.
Make/Shift asks artists to explore the space where material, process, and intention converge. Artists are invited to submit work grounded in techniques and materials traditionally associated with functional craft—ceramics, fiber, glass, wood, basketry, and other hand-based practices—reimagined through a fine art lens. This exhibition considers what happens when utility gives way to concept and transformation. Make/Shift highlights works that stretch, disrupt, and redefine the boundaries between function and form.
Artwork must be made using the techniques or the materials traditionally associated with craft, including but not limited to: quilting, knitting and crochet, weaving, spinning, felting, wood carving, wood turning, glass craft, beading, pottery and ceramics, basketry, leather craft, jewelry, book arts, paper making, stone craft, metal craft, marbling, etc.
