“Warning fake pot”

—

The concept for this collection of ceramics tackles the notion of the artist as a fake and an unaware failure. Allman applies the Dunning-Kruger Effect, which states that ‘if you are stupid, you don’t know you are stupid, because you’re stupid.’ Here the Dunning-Kruger Effect is applied to the artist. ‘If you are a bad artist, you don’t know you are making bad art, because you’re a bad artist.”’

The text wraps around the vessels, reveal an embarrassing, self-deprecating vulnerability. The artist being so consumed with the outer world fails to reflect on the art produced. The vessels appear more insightful than their maker.

Ceramic artwork with fragile parts. This work is for indoor display only. Clean with a damp cloth.
