Burçak Bingöl's exhibition transforms the gallery into a kiln-like space filled with ceramic works. Bingöl's fragile clay objects are often broken or only partially fired and glazed, embracing mistakes and accidents that occur during the process of making. The action of rebuilding after such faults has become Bingöl's metaphor for the continued disintegration and reconstruction of cultural traditions and heritage. Bingöl draws on the rich ceramic history of her homeland of Turkey, a region geographically sited at the gateway between eastern and western 'worlds'. Her ceramics extend the fluid exchange of imagery, ideas, people and goods that has occurred throughout history, both preserving and disrupting time-held eastern traditions and later western, modern influences. -- https://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-st-ives/bur%C3%A7ak-bing%C3%B6l-minor-vibrations-on-earth.
