Offset Flow
“Offset Flow” is a series of fired ceramic tiles that highlight natural, unglazed clay colors. The series was developed as a response to Alida’s large scale, unfired clay installation series, “Coriolis”. While Coriolis is in constant motion, drying under the sun day in and day out, her fired Offset Flow tiles act as the permanent description of what is happening in Coriolis. Named to describe a counterbalance to something in perpetual motion, the visual movement of each tile is a reminder of the constantly changing world around us, perpetually affecting us and our environment. Suggesting ephemerality, Offset Flow acts as a reminder of the constant fluctuation within our environments and the small role that we play in the balance of our ever-changing world.
Offset Flow tiles are each custom built, mounted and finished with a frame or felted backing. All tiles come with a hanging wire. Tiles are built in a variety of sizes and clays from porcelain to earthenware. Framing wood may also vary per request. Please contact me with any questions or orders.
