SLIP brings together ten artists whose practices explore the boundaries and possibilities of paint, extending beyond the flat surface and into clay.
Clay is Just Thick Paint, a phrase often attributed to Peter Voulkos, proposes ceramic surfaces as sites for painterly experimentation. In this understanding, painting and sculpture converge: wet clay, slips, and glazes are handled like impasto, built up, scraped back and reworked to create expressive forms where colour, texture, and shape become one. Together, these works propose a porous boundary between disciplines, where painting does not end at the edge of the canvas but continues, materially and spatially, into the round.
