This series of ceramics explore the use of reclaimed brick, tile and brick cutting sludge collected from 47 Easey Street in 2022. Each ceramic tile or cup holds memory, and expresses the character of the warehouse’s history from a 1900’s bootmaker, to PBS FM headquarters, to 47ES.

Georgia Stevenson works and innovates with construction and demolition by-products through her research project, Breaking Ground. Glaze development for this series is generously supported by the City of Yarra.
