Modern Relics and Artifacts in Obsidian are both collections that hold the concept of time. They are hand built, bespoke, one-off raw clay sculptures made from various clay bodies mixed with cotton linter fiber. As they go through the firing process, the fiber burns out, leaving space that holds memories — leaving creases and folds like wrinkles that reminisce about adventures through life. Each piece feels like an old soul as if unearthed from another time. Their beauty comes from the opposite of newness — the opposite of youth —it lies within their cracks and folds and uniqueness. They have stories to tell.

About the Artist
Stacy Solodkin
Featured at Wallpaper at the Hong Kong Museum of Art and VoyageLA, Solodkin is a Los Angeles-based multidisciplinary artist who channels her creativity primarily through ceramics, fiber clay, and acrylics.
Her artistic journey began in childhood, engrossed in drawing and painting. In describing her artistic process, Stacy emphasizes a collaborative dynamic with her materials and the nebulous realm of creative inspiration. She acknowledges the somewhat mystical aspect, describing it as a harmonious convergence of intuition and experimentation. For Stacy, the key lies in relinquishing control and embracing the flow of ideas, allowing the artwork to evolve organically.
Stepping into her studio symbolizes a release from artistic and personal constraints, fostering an environment where creativity can flourish unrestricted by expectations or limitations.
