Descrição da Obra

This plate sherd was excavated by Archaeological Services Inc. in Toronto. The ceramic sherd is from a plate decorated with the “Mount Zion” pattern made by C. J. Mason and Co., a Staffordshire pottery company operating in England from the 1820s to the 1840s. C. J. Mason and Co. produced a series of biblical themed transferware patterns, each with a bible reference or quotation inscribed inside a tombstone maker’s mark on the base.

Tamar Mason: Weaving Narratives of Rural South Africa

Tamar Mason (born Johannesburg, South Africa, 1966) stands as a compelling figure in contemporary textile art, particularly within the context of South African visual culture. Her artistic journey began with formative experiences collaborating on community projects focused on empowering women artisans from rural communities—a practice that continues to inform her creative vision and methodology. This dedication to fostering skill development alongside storytelling has undeniably shaped her distinctive aesthetic. Mason’s formal training solidified her foundation in art through a diploma from Scuola Lorenzo dei Medici, Florence (1987), followed by a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of South Africa (1993). These academic pursuits instilled a critical understanding of artistic history and technique, which she subsequently honed as co-director of The Artists’ Press, a lithographic studio committed to publishing limited edition artworks by prominent South African artists like William Kentridge and Diane Victor. This collaborative endeavor underscores her belief in the importance of dialogue within the art world and champions the preservation of artisanal practices. Her artistic output centers around intricately woven textiles—a medium she expertly utilizes to explore themes of memory, identity, and the enduring legacy of rural traditions. Mason’s work isn't merely decorative; it’s a deliberate act of documentation and reflection on landscapes and communities often marginalized in mainstream narratives. She draws inspiration from the rich cultural heritage of South Africa, specifically referencing the concept of “Threads of Knowing,” which speaks to the transmission of knowledge across generations—a core element present in her artistic process. Recent exhibitions have cemented Mason’s reputation as a significant voice within the contemporary art scene. Notably, she showcased "Seeing Shadows," her inaugural solo exhibition at Pippy Houldsworth Gallery in November 2024, accompanied by insightful commentary from curator Pippy Houldsworth. Furthermore, her inclusion in “Where the Waters Clash…”—a group exhibition at Goodman Gallery—demonstrates her engagement with broader artistic conversations. Beyond gallery showings, Mason’s pieces reside in collections spanning international institutions like The Smithsonian (Washington, D.C.), furthering their impact and ensuring their preservation for future generations. Her work has been recognized by organizations such as the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and the Institute of Contemporary Art Miami. Mason's artistic contributions extend beyond individual artworks; she actively participates in initiatives promoting textile arts education and fostering connections between artists and communities. Collaborations with museums like Paula’s Museo Inima (Bel Horizonte, Brazil) and the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Art Museum (Port Elizabeth) highlight her commitment to disseminating cultural understanding and celebrating craftsmanship. Her involvement in projects such as “An Odyssey in Print”—a Smithsonian Libraries exhibition—underscores her dedication to preserving artistic heritage and engaging audiences globally.
