Clay in Context

Greenwich House Pottery is proud to partner with the Whitney Museum of American Art for the premiere of Clay in Context, a screening of four short films by Kate Parvenski and Paraphrase Studio that spotlight the 2024 GHP Artists in Residence: Daniel Barragán, Carson Culp, Kristy Moreno, and Gina Tibbott. 

Through vivid cinematography and thoughtful storytelling, Clay in Context offers an intimate look into the studio practices of these four artists and the impact of their residencies at Greenwich House Pottery. From investigations of identity, place, and border politics to reinterpretations of ancient ceramic forms, the films reflect the depth and diversity of artistic expression nurtured through GHP’s Artist Residency Program. 

Following the 40-minute screening, guests are invited to stay for a live Q&A with the featured artists. The conversation will explore their creative journeys, the evolution of their work, and how time at GHP shaped their approach to ceramics. 

This event is presented in conjunction with Ceramics Now, an exhibition on view at the Jane Hartsook Gallery at Greenwich House Pottery from May 8 through June 13, 2025. The exhibition features the work developed by Barragán, Culp, Moreno, and Tibbott during their residencies.
