Panthalassa | Bernadette Tuite at Working Artist Studios

Event Details

Exploring West Cork’s hidden coves by kayak, Bernadette gathers clays and sea-altered debris, which she later transforms through ceramic processes into vessels she calls a claytography of the coastline—tactile notations of time, place, and transformation.
Alongside kiln-cast glass pieces that embody her emotional and physical responses to ocean waters, the ceramics hold the energy, texture, and temporality of the sites they emerge from. Each work speaks to geological time, the impermanence of coastlines, and the fragile balance between humanity and environment.
