About the Exhibition

This exhibition is all about process. The works selected make us curious about the world. They make us want to learn more, know the artist, and use our senses. They provoke a story, a memory, or meaning.

Everyone’s creative process is different. Some artists have specific regimented processes where as others open their creative process to the very fundamental aspects of their existence.

Life is part of the creative process. These works evoke the questions: How do we engage with the world as creative beings? What happens when we make a creative process for how we live life? 

 

About the Organizer

Car Nazzal (she/they) is a contemporary ceramic sculptor and author based in California. For Nazzal art is an on-going conversation about being in the Palestinian diaspora, queer liberation, and disability.

Inspired from their studies in psychology Nazzal utilizes their mischievous and rebellious subconscious shadow parts to create work that is iconoclastic by exploring our relationship to our bodies, sexuality, and illusive emotions. It is their artistic desire for their art to be the catalyst for conversations around the viewers own personal experiences.

Nazzal has a permanent collection inside San Francisco gallery: Queer Arts Featured and is presented in Los Angeles gallery: The Pot Shop. Showing until September 2024 is “Temper” at AMOCA in Pomona, CA in the Fahrenheit exhibition. See Nazzal’s recently published futurist essay in the book Inara.
