ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
Lydia Kardos is a San Diego visual artist working with a focus in ceramics. Her work in photography, exploring narratives through imagery, color composition and the female form as well as her work in painting and drawing have contributed to her sculptural voice. The contrasts of living in New York City, Mexico and California have deeply influenced her visual language. A conversation of home, surroundings and connection to these spaces can be seen in mark making, impasto and scumbling techniques in her glaze work as well as  surface design, texture and more importantly color. The importance and inspiration of magical realism is apparent in her description of objects and spaces as her ceramics tell stories with texture, color, abstract shapes and biomorphic forms. Lydia invites the viewer to an intimate space between two worlds of the present and fantasy through exaggerated and vivid colors and her objects as characters, undulating in form, lush with texture. Her most recent exhibitions were in Boston, MA, New York, NY, and Brooklyn, NY.
