ALTERFACT is an experimental design studio created by Lucile Sciallano and Ben Landau in 2014. Since graduating from Design Academy Eindhoven in 2013, Lucile and Ben have worked in tandem on various projects in different mediums. Their collaboration has culminated in the creation of Alterfact Studio, a platform through which to conduct critical research with materials and data translated through the manufacture of ‘stuff’.

Alterfact’s practice is currently focused on the use of 3D printing in clay as a small batch manufacturing process. They push the boundaries of this traditionally plastic-based medium, and play with its connotations of utilitarianism and gimmickry, as it moves into a feasible reality.

ANNA PARSONS is a ceramicist, working intuitively, finding clay as a receptive medium to express herself. Anna often incorporates additions such as volcanic rock from the bush around where she lives. Anna's practice took many years of experimentation of temperature and clay body to get these results - she fires her work numerous times, sometimes up to 5 firings to get the desired effects. Anna majored in sculpture at  BA Sydney College of the Arts and now lives in Rosebank, NSW.

Clay receives me

Weaving instinctively

Bouncing Off

My inner psychology

Materiality, chemistry, bodily

I cast shadows

JENNIFER OH was born in the Philippines, grew up in Australia, lived in London and Rome and has recently moved back to Sydney.

Her ceramic work is informed by the multiplicity of her travels. They are in many ways investigations into form and function and how our everyday objects can transform into talismans for modern life. Her work is rooted in the traditional aspects of the craft in technique and construction; although she finds that it's the interaction between human and object that cultivates meaning and it's this personal reaction to objects that is the core interest of her work.

MALI TAYLOR is a Melbourne based ceramic artist currently exploring the parameters of coil methodology within her practice. Born in the Northern Rivers of NSW, Mali spent her childhood immersed in the beauties of the Australian landscape, which has undoubtedly influenced her practice.

Mali completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts specialising in object based practice and has since won and been a finalist in multiple awards.

Through the methodical and meditative layering of earthy clay, Mali’s hand-built sculptures hold time, invoking memories of archaic Australian landscapes.

STUDIO MULDERS is a Perth based creative project of Annemieke who worked across the world as a scientist before becoming a ceramic artist in 2014. Her work explores the intersection of order, chaos, function, asymmetry and beauty.

She uses discarded vessels that are changed by cutting, rearranging or breaking part of its surface. This process of destruction and building up creates a form that is simultaneously fragile, robust, complex and simple. This inherent contrariness demands questioning and defies simple categorisation.
