Low fire stoneware

This piece is part of a larger body of work exploring boyhood, connection, and masculinity. My recent work has looked at the objects that stand out as most significant to that period of my life while also connecting to a larger social narrative around ideas such as friendship, play, family, memory, loss, and trauma. Through objects like this Sega cartridge, I am establishing a connection to a period of time that, to me, is both nostalgic and fraught, joyful and tragic, while trying to connect the audience with their own memories around these objects and the periods in time that they owned, interacted with, or observed these objects in use or at play.
