Juliette Walker
Central Library Bubbler Room
July - August 2019
Ceramic artist Juliette Walker’s residency revolved around Light As Material Project (L.A.M.P.), the artist’s ongoing exploration of the objects or things we use to bring light into interior spaces, both for utility and aesthetic value. In her own practice, she makes functional lamps, light sculptures, and installations out of ceramics.
Walker was born in Madison, Wisconsin, and received a BA in Studio Art from Pomona College in 2013. She has completed residencies at the Lussier Community Education Center (Madison, Wisconsin) and the International Ceramics Studio (Kecskemét, Hungary). In 2018, she was awarded a Kindling Fund Award, a grant administered from SPACE gallery (Portland, Maine) as a part of the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Arts’ Regional Regranting Program for a project involving trading handmade ceramic mugs for stories about home. Her interests lie in the overlap between craft, design, collaboration, and ideas of home.
Following her residency at The Bubbler, Walker pursued an MFA at the University of Arkansas-Fayetteville.
