stolenform’s ceramics take inspiration from materials found on the streets. london-based stolenform began in 2012 by designer/maker christian marsden who found inspiration all around the urban environment from years of walking the city’s streets. deciding to give things like bricks, manhole covers, and pipes new life, stolenform turns them into sculptural pieces that also have a function. the industrial-inspired ceramics are slightly quirky, definitely eye-catching, and completely useful making them the perfect conversation piece for your home or as a gift

the latest of chiharu shiota’s self-described ‘drawings in space’ overflows within the scad museum of art’s gallery space, immersing visitors in a labyrinth of red yarn. from now through august 6th, the site becomes a expansive entanglement of carefully intertwined thread, forming an all-embracing cocoon of vibrantly-colored matter. within the woven wilderness, a collection of aged objects are placed throughout, leading viewers to question their origin and their meaning within the space. the exhibition ‘infinity lines’ expands on shiota’s broader practice and explores the interconnectivity between possessions and the narratives they hold
