We are excited to announce Mitchell Oliver as our very FIRST Artist in Residence!
Mitchell is an interdisciplinary artist who blends ceramics, image, sound, and performance to explore how the world is designed to shape our perceptions. With a rich background as a landscaper, chef, and radio DJ, he brings a fresh perspective to his art, challenging us to rethink how we interact with our devices, environments, and the objects we use daily.
Through his large-scale installations, Mitchell invites us to reflect on the human experience, the materiality of technology, and the potential illusions of reality. His functional ceramics are crafted with care, encouraging us to pause and truly engage with the items that shape our everyday rituals.
We can't wait for Mitchell to join us in September 2024 and share his innovative vision with our community. Stay tuned for more and check out his website in the meantime! www.mitchelloliver.com
