**Fitzhugh Karol: On The Grounds –**

New Ceramic Reliefs Added Saturday, October 25, 2025 | 3–5 PM

———————-

The Arts Center at Duck Creek is pleased to announce the addition of a new ceramic relief work by Fitzhugh Karol to his ongoing site-specific outdoor exhibition On the Grounds. A reception and artist-led tour will take place on October 25, at 3pm, and an Almond Artist & Writers Dinner will be held on November 1, 6:30 pm.

Karol’s new ceramic works depict a fantastical map of Duck Creek’s property—tracing its architecture, natural features, and sculptures through the artist’s distinctive sculptural language. Combining impressions, cut forms, and inscriptions, these reliefs invite visitors to explore the site as both a landscape and a narrative space.

“I make these ceramic reliefs to tell stories—it could be an interpretation of a myth, or a fantastical map of some real or perceived environment— using cut and assembled shapes, impressions, and inscriptions,” says Karol. “This ceramic work for Duck Creek is a map of the property that depicts its architecture as well as the sculptures on the grounds. Added to this layout are little stories, memories, and fantasies.”

Fitzhugh will present his work on Monday, November 3, at Almond Artist and Writers Dinner. Reservations for this salon style talk and meal can be made at https://almondrestaurant.com/artists-writers/

Karol’s outdoor exhibition On the Grounds remains on view through mid-December 2025, inviting visitors to experience his large-scale sculptures in dialogue with the natural landscape throughout the changing seasons.

Based in Springs, NY, Karol’s work is included in numerous public and private collections and has been shown at institutions such as the Tang Teaching Museum, Socrates Sculpture Park and LongHouse Reserve.
