The Endangered Species Project: New England

new work by Julia Galloway

Exhibition Dates: February 4 - April 14, 2019

Gallery 224 at the Ceramics Program, Office for the Arts at Harvard

224 Western Ave, Allston, Massachusetts 02134

Gallery 224 at the Ceramics Program, Office for the Arts at Harvard is pleased to present an exhibition of work from Montana-based potter Julia Galloway's most recent body of work, The Endangered Species Project: New England. Galloway works from each state's official list of species identified as endangered, threatened or extinct. She has created a series of covered jars, one urn for each species, illustrating the smallest Agassiz Clam Shrimp to the largest Eastern Elk.

Galloway writes, "Recently I happened to read about the Wandering Albatross on a layover in an airport. The Wandering Albatross is one of the largest birds in the world, sporting a wing span up to eleven feet across and able to stay aloft for up to 30 days drafting on the oceans currents. This bird flies unusually close to the water, so on average, every five minutes, one of these birds is decapitated by industrial fishing lines, and literally, it brought me to my knees with sorrow - what could I do? Making pottery is how I understand the world. I am creating covered jars for endangered species. Change can occur when something that is generally unseen becomes seen. I have made all 305 species listed in New England in hope that this sheer volume of pottery in one gallery will have an impact on the public. On the surface of the jars are lush images of the animals isolated in a colorless habitat. My sister, an evolutionary biologist, insists that I include hope for the future in this project. Part of the exhibition includes the reasons for the dropping population and what we, average folks, can do to reverse or at least slow down this trend.”

Some notes on the graphic from Mel:

Plant species are Salix lemmonii, Carex nebrascensis and Bistorta bistortoides. Fish is a baby rainbow trout. I researched many source images from calflora, university and conservation websites, but none of my images are direct translations of any photographs.

I intentionally composed a lot of root-soil space with the idea that you have space to lay over text if you want to. In the sky above the water line in the center of the image I was thinking you could do an arrow pointing down with text like "carbon sink" or something. Let me know if you would like me to hand paint that arrow in later (and rescan and resend image). It wouldn't be too hard, I just wasn't sure if you all wanted it or not.
