Another exciting part of growing up is the fact that you start appreciating more the arts. BALTIC, a center for contemporary art, is the best place to enjoy art by the most talented,fresh and alternative artists in NorthEast. Jesse Wine is definately on of them. I had the chance to enjoy his latest work, Young Man Red. The most interesting thing about art is that everyone can translate it the way he/she wants. For example, this exhibition for me expresses the core of mankind in our ages. Are we more than just slaves and victims of our desires?Who are we?
Jesse Wine (born Chester, 1983) works mainly with ceramics and uses traditional techniques to explore process and chance. Wine never records his methods; he mixes glazes and oxides together and fires at different temperatures, seeing colours melt and blend and structures collapse. The final work is thus the result of happenstance – lopsided vessels with shiny metallic glazes to self-portrait heads sporting a variation of contemporary accessories, belts and bobble hats. For his exhibition in the Ground Floor gallery at BALTIC, Wine will make an ambitious installation of new work which responds to the quirks of modern life and pays homage to the other artists who have inspired him.
