Gatherform
A site of sculpture where ceramics, textiles, and cuisine tessellate into an ephemeral installation of embedded geometric shapes. Table becomes a form-making process where conversation, interaction, and taste merge into an evolving pattern. Together, we shape the gathering, and it shapes us.

Champion’s Dinner
bryce + jess
Inspired by Indycar Racing — custom, hand-made ceramics mimic oil cans and the iconic Borg-Warner Trophy, while shot glasses serve buttermilk shots in a playful nod to victory traditions. Paintings double as tablecloths, while tire-engraved plates anchor each guests place at the table alongside hand-stamped shop rags serving as dinner napkins. Drawing from the 1993 Championship Auto Racing Auxiliary (Cara) Indycar Cookbook, the menu pays homage to motorsport history through food using actual race car driver’s recipes. Set in a restored, early 1900’s barn, the dinner invites a gathering of multidisciplinary artists and racing enthusiasts to share meal celebrating creativity through the intersection of art and motorsport culture.

Igloo Dinner
michael + jess
Plastic sheeting and packing tape transform the chilly night into an oasis of warmth and conviviality within the walls of a drafty hay barn. The simple igloo cozily nestled guests around the table partaking in bowls of steaming, comforting food served upon handmade ceramics. Each place setting complete with a small ceramic icicle, a playful nod to safety “in case of collapse.” Beneath them, seat warmers (rice-filled pouches heated in the kiln) ensured warmth—a small gesture of care.
The dinner was part performance, part installation, part social experiment: a creative act against the seasonal instinct to retreat. In embracing the cold, we found warmth in community.
