About this Event
Carol Bradley was commissioned to create The Necklace by the City of Kitchener during her Artist in Residency in 1996. The 42’ sculpture elegantly strings together more than 100 white earthenware vessels on steel rods and brackets to decorate the curved outer wall of Kitchener Council chambers.
Carol has created ceramics & other art forms for decades, including three other pieces in the City of Kitchener’s public art collection: Strata (1997) at Country Hills Community Centre; Thalia’s Curtain (2001) at Conrad Centre for the Performing Arts; & The Pool (2003) at Forest Heights pool. She also ran an art tile studio, Rivertile, with her partner Tilman Lichter in Kitchener from 2001 to 2011..
Check out The Necklace on Kitchener City Hall's 2nd floor & hear Carol explain how she crafted this gorgeous sculpture starting at 7:30pm, followed by Q&A session.
Carol will speak in 44 Gaukel Creative Workspace's flex space, off the secondary entrance facing Gaukel Block. Capacity in the flex space & inside the facility is limited, so attendees are encouraged to get a free ticket as walk-up access may be restricted.
"How I Made..." artist talks are produced & presented by the City of Kitchener's Arts & Creative Industries team.
