In this episode, artist Jessica Stoller invites us inside her powerful solo exhibition Split, on view at New York’s PPOW Gallery. Through meticulously crafted porcelain sculptures, she explores themes of bodily autonomy, feminism, aging, and the tension between beauty and the grotesque.
Stoller discusses the personal and political forces that shaped the work—from the overturning of Roe v. Wade to the overlooked realities of perimenopause. She also unpacks her deep connection to ceramics, the challenges of navigating the art world, and how form and material can carry radical meaning. A conversation about art, rage, and the strange poetry of the body.
