Abstract

Terra Multa is an exhibition of ceramic sculpture and tile installations inspired by historical folktales. Through the industrialization of agriculture and animal husbandry, humanity has created a system that provides surplus for some, while creating food scarcity and environmental hazards to others. Foreseeing a dystopian conclusion to this current trajectory, Terra Multa abstracts these stories to create a fairytale for a world that is no longer able to support traditional livestock practices.
