V&A

To celebrate the opening of the new ceramics galleries at the V&A we were commissioned to make a new installation. Signs & Wonders is a response to the V&A's vast collection of ceramic objects. It reflects on early Chinese celadons, eighteenth-century European porcelain and early twentieth-century modernism.
