Ali Hval: Exploring Femininity Through Ceramics, Textiles, and Installation Art

October 21, 2025

I recently received a write-up in Create! Magazine. You can find the full article here.

“What is your relationship to your medium? What draws you to it?

Ceramics strike a balance between heft and delicacy; the material itself is easily shattered, but strong enough to hold form. This feels symbolic and human, bringing another dimension to my sculptural ceramic works. The materials I combine with ceramics are ones I use and love in my everyday life. The work is proliferated with beauty supplies materials like fuzzy pom-pom hair ties, glistening rhinestones, shiny nail polish, and shimmering fabrics. My work feels like picking out an outfit in the morning, a play of textures and shine, and feels close to my usual morning routine in this regard.”
