About the Exhibition:
This body of work visualizes Coleman’s experience of being raised by parents with severe trauma caused by living in Germany during WWII and it’s aftermath. The collection is a monument to Coleman’s childhood and origin family and also to trauma survivors’ courage. The ceramics are a physical reminder of how wars affect generations of families, long after the war itself is over.
Kordula Coleman is a figurative ceramic sculptor who lives and works in Northeast Minneapolis. After immigrating to the US in 2000 from Cologne, Germany, Coleman rekindled her love for sculpting with clay. Coleman started sculpting at an early age and is a ceramic journeyman. More information can be found on Coleman’s website: http://www.kordulacolemansculptures.com/
