Jemma Gowland

JG539Y48 Small Baby Boom

Hand-built in porcelain, this sculpture features a pair of masked figures as they prepare to detonate a bundle of dynamite. The figures are dressed in carefully sewn garments built up through layers of porcelain, oxides, glaze, and metal pins, creating a fragile, disrupted effect. The explosive device is made from porcelain, metal, and electrical wires.

About this maker

Jemma’s work explores the way that girls are generally constrained from birth to conform to an appearance and code of behaviour, to present a perfect face and maintain the expectations of others. The use of porcelain or stoneware with layered disrupted surfaces, describe the vulnerability beneath.
