‘Cry Me a River’ is an exhibition about heartbreak, weaving together emotional threads that evoke love’s labour’s lost. The center piece is a marble sculpture that Elliott carved as a personal challenge after separating from a significant relationship and navigating the rollercoaster of a new one. From this oversized carrara marble heart a series of miniature stoneware versions evolved, dubbed the ‘Don’t Ask’ series. These delicate miniature hearts that compose the series, are made from slip cast stoneware. Each heart was shattered and repaired using a modern interpretation of the ancient Japanese art of kintsugi; where broken pottery is carefully restored using gold - a symbolic representation of fracture and healing. The shattering of the hearts is recorded on film, in painstaking slow motion, echoing the fragility of the human condition. Elliott invites you in to sit on the sob sofa and rock it out to your favorite tunes.
