Folly, Beth Katleman, photo by Alan Wiener

Summary[edit]

Description
English: At first glance, Folly evokes a world of luxury and genteel pleasure, but a closer look reveals a more subversive agenda. Inspired by traditional Toile de Jouy textiles, the 48 sculptural tableaus are comprised of flea market trinkets and icons from popular culture, cast in porcelain. The surreal narratives touch on themes of lost innocence or domestic disturbances. Porcelain suggests both the opulence of European high craft and the exuberance of kitsch souvenirs. This duality infuses the narratives, poised between consumption and desire.
