Quartz Inversion captures the work and reflections of over 60 international ceramists—what they were making and thinking—during the global Coronavirus pandemic.
We launched QI Round One in June 2020, just a few months after the lockdown took hold around the world. The artists in this cohort discuss their responses to the shocking first phase of the pandemic, with its ‘shelter in place’ orders, limited access to studios, and abrupt pivot from in-person to remote teaching.
We launched QI Round Two in December 2020, as the ‘second wave’ of the Coronavirus was accelerating, with renewed lockdowns in the UK and parts of the US and Europe. Each Round Two artist was nominated by an artist in Round One.
Meet the QI Round Two artists here.
We take a moment to remember all those who have lost their lives to the Coronavirus—1.62 million people worldwide, and over 300,000 in the United States alone, as of December 14, 2020—and to thank the front line workers who have given their all during the pandemic.
