Artist Statement
Julia Sverchuk is a NY-based ceramicist. She creates sculptural and decorative work out of stoneware on the themes of science and nature. Sverchuk’s ongoing ceramic series is driven by the urge to understand the nature of our physical reality as science describes it but cannot easily visualize. Sverchuk explores fundamental questions that fascinate her: why does time move in only one direction? What is the shape of our universe? How did life on Earth begin? By transforming these and other scientific concepts into three-dimensional forms, she is working to understand them herself while making what’s invisible become visible to others.
