2026 Artist Residency
A year of experimentation
Clandestina presents the inaugural edition of its Artists Residency: a year-long collaboration between the artists and the fair to expand their proposal and develop new opportunities for experimentation.
For its first edition, Hannah Banciella and Carin Ingalsbe each created a full collection of handmade tableware alongside new artworks, together titled The Fire Eaters. The collections are now available to acquire.

Carin Ingalsbe
“Love Is How We See”
- A collection celebrating the practice of finding one's way to things in their subtle, complex loveliness through curiosity, itself a form of openness and love.
- Dinner and appetizer plates hand-painted with chrysanthemums, poppies, asters, urns, and marbled clay.
- Dessert plates made in pairs and tied with a ribbon, an invitation to share.
- Cups from the “Love Is a Gamble” series, with imagery drawn from slot-machine iconography, plus gilded porcelain cups and Arcadian cameo bowls.

“Marry the Mundane to the Sacred”
- Titled after a line from Robin Wall Kimmerer's Braiding Sweetgrass, whose writing on the power of ceremony runs through her work.
- Sea life and landscapes illustrated in several ways: some plates grow from her paintings, others are studies of shape and pattern.
- Dinner and appetizer plates in cream, umber, and cobalt with kelp, sargassum, lotus pods, and shells.
- Dessert plates shaped by draping clay over an abalone shell, capturing the essence of the shell itself.
