Chanda Zea is in love with objects. Sometimes new objects, but usually old, used objects that speak to her of their past life. She wants to own them, possess them and explore them intimately. They speak to her with their forms, their curves and corners, dimples and dots, swirling lines or smooth broad planes. She assembles and re-assembles these forms, combining various bits and pieces into series of objects that stand alone or interact with one another. Light and shadow on sleek, white surfaces emphasize the lines and planes that originally called to her. Chanda is currently a visiting assistant professor of ceramics at Indiana University Southeast, just across the river from Louisville, Ky.
