Michelle Mendlowitz and Robin Tieu are Toronto-based ceramic educators and makers. Their new Gardiner Shop exhibition, Causality: The Cumulative Effect, is an exploration of impact. Using individual hollow spheres, it shows the cumulative effects of how force alters forms while simultaneously creating new forms. The outcome of throwing these objects against each other varies, some bloating, some exploding. The final result is a narrative of their lived experiences where identity is shaped by interaction.
