Tierra—the word itself carries weight. It names earth and land, ground to stand on and homeland carried across distances, material and ancestor all at once. Craft Contemporary's latest iteration of its Clay Biennial expands beyond ceramic to embrace broader practices rooted in earth and land, centering the work of Latinx, Indigenous, and Black artists whose relationships to soil are marked by kinship rather than ownership. Here, earth appears as teacher and relative, a holder of knowledge shaped through making, tending, and embodied care.
