VIBRATIONS
Netzorg-Kerr Gallery
March 24 —April 25, 2026
Curated by Kyle Triplett, Morean Endowed Distinguished Professor in Ceramics
Since 2019, the Morean Ceramics Research Center (MCRC) at Western Michigan University has hosted its annual Summer Intensive Workshop series. Each two-week session offers a forum for exploring how form, function, narrative, and cultural discussion converge. “Vibrations” brings together the work of past workshop instructors—Kyle Johns, Chandra DeBuse, Larz Voltz, Jamie Bates, George Rodriguez, Alex Zablocki, Stuart Gair, Raven Halfmoon, Amy Santoferraro, and Paul S. Briggs. Collectively, their practices highlight the shifting role of ceramics across studio craft, design, and contemporary art. By presenting diverse approaches, the exhibition demonstrates how ceramics can seamlessly transition across disciplinary boundaries, encompassing craft, design, sculpture, and social practice.
The MCRC Summer Intensive workshops function not only as a teaching space but also as a research-driven laboratory, advancing critical investigations in the expanded field of ceramics. This exhibition is presented as part of the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts (NCECA) 60th annual conference.
