CANDY CIRCUS



This month at IGLOO we have John Oliver Lewis from San Diego. He will be showing ceramic works that lie in between sculpture, painting, and the soft quality of Play-Doh. These objects of imagination are supported by the inspection of architecture, natural land formations and vehicles of travel, informed by cartoons, caricature, knick-knacks, and candy. The resulting individuals are often arranged into groupings and "gangs" based on observed formal and narrative relationships.
