Description

Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an interview with Adam Chau. Blending the machinery of industry with an interest in handcraft, Adam has created a digital calligraphy process which he uses to decorate tiles and vessels. In our interview we talk about developing mechanical mark-making processes, his Screenshot series investigating our evolving relationship with mobile devices, and his most recent show Sent, which revolves around the paradox of the anonymous selfie. To find out more about his work visit www.adamchau.com. We also discuss the reemergence of the Color Network, a group dedicated to aid in the advancement of people of color in the ceramic arts.
