Jesse Wine’s The enigma of a night is a series of ten unique ceramic works created exclusively for SculptureCenter. Each handcrafted sleeping head has an opening in the back to reveal a diorama of carefully arranged objects creating a dream scene unique to each work. Primarily working in clay, Wine explores process, color, and form and works with multiple glazing and firing techniques that create richly textured surfaces. Across tabletop and monumental scales, his work enacts dynamics between surface, structure, form, and interior life through wide-ranging approaches to bodily representation in sculpture.
