'Ceramic Rooms' at the Geffrye Museum

An innovative exhibition at the Geffrye Museum in East London was filmed by NEVAC on 9th December. Kate Malone and Edmund de Waal worked for a year on the project to produce their own ceramic rooms. Kate's 'maximalist' extravaganza is an amazing counterpoint to de Waal's 'minimlaist' space. Kate was interviewed talking about her room whilst de Waal's room was discussed by the museum's Deputy Director, and curator of the exhibition, Christine Lalumia. Edmund was unable to take part in the filming but it is hoped that we can interview him in the New Year talking about the project.
