For What It’s Worth
Each day, we tend to accept the established values assigned to objects, whether dictated by market forces or cultural associations. In this exhibition, Julie & Jesse will present their latest works, which stem from their extensive creative and research exploration of mining resources from the urban environment. By fusing the city’s discarded and overlooked materials with ceramics, they bring the unseen into view and elevate the unwanted to the forefront. Each find is an opportunity to unpack stories across time and space, hidden within the material. This process of generating new value for the devalued subverts, redefines and expands our current perception of the worth of materials.

Julie & Jesse speaks with Sotheby's Hong Kong
In the Hands of the Potter
We had the pleasure of hosting Sotheby’s in our studio for a photoshoot juxtaposing our work and Chinese neolithic pottery including the collection of Ronald W. Longsdorf. We also sat down with Denise Tsui, managing editor of Sotheby’s Asia, to discuss “Understanding Chinese Neolithic Pottery Today”. Through a juxtaposition of Chinese Neolithic pottery and contemporary pottery we explore how history informs the present, and the power of the human touch.
