Lucinda Mudge Ceramic Art Exhibition at Agapanthus Gallery

See the edgy vases by ceramic artist Lucinda Mudge that has art collectors worldwide begging for more

Lucinda Mudge has created colourful pieces that will take your breath away with their splendour while simultaneously making a statement about the political state of the country. Her selection of stunning vases is definitive proof that ceramic art does not get the attention it deserves. Her first big exhibition in Cape Town, will be held at Agapanthus Gallery from Saturday, 3 September till the end of the month.

Craftwork has always been a part of Lucinda’s life. Her parents and brother are furniture makers so it’s no surprise that she chose a career that requires using her hands to create something unique. After completing a fine arts degree at the University of Cape Town and moving to London to work as a photographer, she decided to shift her focus on ceramic art and moved back home with a new baby in tow.

Lucinda’s vases tell stories about South Africa. They show contrasting images of the country: the inimitable beauty found in every province juxtaposed with the unavoidable hostility that has been plaguing it for decades. She uses her vases to open up a discussion about access to wealth in a country where so many people are living in poverty. It’s clear that Lucinda is an artist to watch – her pieces were displayed at the Guggenheim Bilbao in 2015 as part of their ‘Making Africa’ exhibition, she’s had exceedingly successful shows in Johannesburg and Dublin and has an upcoming solo exhibition scheduled in London next year.

The exhibition opens on Saturday, 3 September and entry to the gallery is free. Agapanthus is open from 9am to 5pm on weekdays and 9am to 3pm on weekends.
