"This wonderfully weird sculptural ceramics show centres on the classical amphora vase, now elevated and embellished with climbing creatures, chicken feet, chains, fungus and a proudly profiled cockatoo. Multilayered use of brilliant glazes creates glowing swathes of uninterrupted colour. The show can be viewed as Meissen energized by acid, a psychedelic cornucopia." LINK

"Roxanne Jackson’s latest exhibit Nature is a Whore: A Comedy & A Tragedy, an aptly titled show of dizzying and wild polarities...feels immediately bizarre and fantastical, featuring chicken feet, decapitated heads, sea shells, cakes, blood and other unexpected sculptures…[in] a layered, multivalent display of artistic prowess."
Nature is a Whore: A Comedy & A Tragedy, Solo Exhibition at The Hole, New York, NY, September 7 - October 30, 2022

”All of the work brings to mind the powerful words of Carmen Gimézes Smith in her poem Fragments From the Confessions, ‘Decoupage the jar with mouths, cut from Cosmo, mister death, fill it with our minstrel blood, or the placenta from our collective lacunae, grow lascivious magnolias in it, heavy lipped and lush with pollen, the jar houses my illusions, of eating men like hairballs.’” Excerpt from the press release by Sarah Walko

The amphora demonstrates what I am trying to do with ceramics, “which is to express and show dichotomies and polarities…[such as] low brow and high brow, the profane and the sacred, utility and absurdity…[The vessel form] is a departure point for these ideas.”

“Jackson’s split heads in shiny pastel and metallic glazes contort animal forms into something demonic, fantastical, and yonic.”

“Jackson’s creation, that was built from 800 lbs of raw clay, serves as a monument to the death of pop culture, drawing inspiration from the tradition of vanitas, still life painting, and momento mori, as well as the ongoing influences of the pandemic on our everyday lives.”
