ektor garcia, (i can't afford to live here can't afford to die here) I began this piece during the pandemic, on a rooftop in Mexico City. Using a power drill and a paint mixer I combined water and various minerals to create a stoneware clay body inside of a large plastic trashcan. Once combined, my friend Yadira García Rubio and I laid the clay out to dry on plaster slabs made by another friend of ours, Chavis Marmol. During the time it took the clay to fully dry I flew to New York to purchase specialty glazes, underglazes, and tools to bring to my ceramic studio in Mexico. Once back in my studio, I used these glazes to finish the piece and fired it in my friend Dago's studio Taller Cobalto. The same day the piece came out of the kiln, Yadira packed it into a suitcase and brought it here to Gern en Regalia. Eric Strothmann edited this title.
