Shards and Stitches

Sandra Kerr – Gordan

This series explores memory, connection, and trauma through porcelain, thread, and fragments of old metal. Porcelain, fragile and translucent, carries traces like the body and lived experience. Thread binds, stitches, and unravels, marking scars and acts of repair.

Metal fragments enter as both support and obstruction—sometimes holding fragile forms in place, sometimes weighing upon them, recalling forgotten structures that are essential yet overlooked.

Together these materials create a dialogue of fragility and resilience, permanence and impermanence. The works reflect how memory and trauma are carried, mended, and transformed, suggesting that even in states of fracture, strength and continuity can emerge.
