This national juried exhibition will showcase ceramic artists that use the human form as a vehicle to communicate and bring awareness to the often-difficult topics and issues of our time. The ideologies of “isms” are vast and can include, but not limited to socio-political, environmental and cultural issues, racism, religious freedom, war, sexism, gender identity, classism, poverty, substance abuse, gun violence, etc.

Jurors: Kelly and Kyle Phelps

Identical twin brothers Kelly and Kyle Phelps are Professors at private Catholic universities in Ohio. Kelly Phelps is a Professor at Xavier University (Cincinnati), and Kyle is a Professor at the University of Dayton (Dayton) where they head the sculpture and ceramic departments.
