PinkNet Studio

What does it mean to live with the land?

That's the question at the heart of Eve Tagny's (Eve T ) installation Excavated Junctures, presented at the Gardiner Museum’s International Ceramic Art Fair 2026. The Montreal-based artist has created an immersive excavation site: a platform that visitors are invited to step onto, where soil slowly dries and shifts over the course of the exhibition, and ceramic vessels, shaped to recall the body, speak to themes of support, grief, and belonging.

Woven into the glazes: soil Tagny brought back from Cameroon. Subtle, but present. A reminder that where we come from is always part of what we create.

"My practice connects craft, ceramics art, and architecture in ways that reimagine the making of spaces." - Ronald Rael

Ronald Rael architect, artist, and activist, is building a large-scale ceramic silo installation live at ICAF 2026. Over the course of the exhibition, he's 3D-printing hundreds of interlocking ceramic bricks, assembling them into an architectural structure that grows week by week.

At its core: a practice that bridges the ancient tradition of building with clay and cutting-edge fabrication to reimagine how we make spaces, and what we make them from.

This time, we stepped into Art Dubai through the eyes of author Dana Mado.
As a writer, Dana shared with us how she connects with artworks through emotion, memory, and storytelling, reminding us that art is not only something we see, but something we carry with us.

Few people speak about art with the kind of emotional connection Zina Khair does.

A longtime collector and co-founder of The Khair Collection, Zina walked us through some of the works that stayed with her at this year’s Art Dubai, selections shaped by memory, humanity, and the beauty of imperfection.

In conversation with Cherie Daly.

An intuitive abstract painter whose work moves through emotion, spontaneity, and bold expressive energy, creating space for play, strength, and reflection.
