Welcoming Alex Morante @slipslob to Victoria House.
Founded by Dame Tracey Emin, the Victoria House Residency gives artists up to three months to live and work in a restored Georgian house in Margate. Alex joins Enrique LΓ³pez Llamas for this round.
Alex makes figurative ceramic sculpture: distorted beasts and figures drawn from myth, lore, and her own subconscious. She builds complex surfaces using oxides layered with crystalline and crater glazes, evoking mold, rust, lichen, and decay. The kiln is a collaborator. Transformation and endurance show up directly on the form.
Back in London after completing my first artist residency in Wales with @mawddachresidency
Feeling lucky and privileged to have spent two weeks of uninterrupted time writing, painting, hiking (and listening to the new Harry styles album) in such a beautiful part of the UK. Thank you to Scarlett & Jake for the incredible opportunity and gorgeous studio! And thank you to @fen_._ for being a brilliant co-resident and bone boiler :)
