Schoolhouse Gallery is pleased to announce Ouch, a compelling solo exhibition featuring recent sculptural work by ceramic artist Anna Poor. The show is on view from August 22 to September 14, 2025, offering a captivating glimpse into her introspective and emotionally resonant artistic exploration.
Anna Poor's newest creations evoke a delicate balance of whimsy and poignancy, with animal-like figures that blend adorable charm with subtle distress. Through miniature ceramic forms—ranging from rat-like creatures with elongated features to fox-eared figures and expressive gestures—she evokes themes of vulnerability, identity, and resilience. Each piece resonates with evocative titles such as Ouch, Trust, and Landscape of no, inviting a nuanced reflection on emotional experiences.
On opening night, visitors will encounter the artist's unique sculptural language in its full context—portraying narratives of self-perception and creative survival. Ouch reaffirms Schoolhouse Gallery's dedication to showcasing thoughtful, character-driven contemporary works that spark empathy and connection.
