About This Event

"What if we saw a large group of caterpillars devouring the leaves of a cabbage. Would this not be an "army" of caterpillars attacking the plant? The words we use for a collection of things are meant to add a new dimension to the meaning of the collected group. Sometimes they give us a fresh or humorous perspective inspiring a whole new meaning. In this show Northey explores these collective nouns and how these words can create different images in our minds when they have alternate and multiple uses. Imagine a pod of whales all lined up like "peas in a pod." In this ceramic show the pieces are hand built in clay and paperclay with a variety of glaze finishes. Some are functional and some are decorative "
