Progressional Currents is an exhibition highlighting ceramic artists that have traveled to Hungary in order to expand and challenge their studio practice at the International Ceramics Studio (ICS) in Kecskemét. These artists lived and worked together during the summer of 2015 and 2016. At the ICS they worked alongside and learned from sculptors, plaster-masters and ceramic innovators from around the world. The works displayed reveal how each artist worked before visiting ICS, their approach to a new environment and material, and how that has affected their work since returning to the United States. Concepts explore religion, architecture, the environment, anatomy and the occult. Artists include Emily Connell, London Dupere, Kim Lavonne, Cydney Ross, Melanie Sherman and Joseph Wullner.
