Video Movement research
The focus of the movement score and film project is the haptic and sculptural qualities of Namer’s pottery, as well as the bonds of kinship forged between the artists and Rosalie Namer herself. The goal was for the pottery to be the protagonist, for Namer to be the one guiding the arranging of the pottery and the artists’ bodies. She Arranges premièred at Ceramic Friends: Façonner l’Amitié, the 5e Virginia McClure Ceramics Biennale hosted by the McClure Gallery in Westmount, Canada. She Arranges was financially supported by the Canada Council for the Arts.

The August Plate
since 2020






Instagram Food
The August Plate is an artistic research project and social media account profiling photos of a single plate by Rosalie Namer featuring meals created by August Klintberg. Each photograph includes a short text naming the ingredients in the dish (for example: violets, fleur de sel, asparagus, furikake). Over the span of many months, this collection of images and recipes expanded, with each meal documented from the same vantage point. This project intersects with Musée Rosalie Namer through its mobilization of Namer's legacy through research creation. Instagram: @theaugustplateInstagram Food

Exhibition Curatorial Epistolary
A small tenmokku soupière by Rosalie Namer — what the potter referred to as a “bachelor’s pot” — was included in Paris gallery hors-séries’ 2022 Arts de la Table exhibition dedicated to ceramic tureens. hors-séries curators Karim Rahman and Frederic Duarte extended an artistic and curatorial invitation to Benny Nemer to “set the table” around Rosalie’s soupière, selecting other pieces from their collection to dialogue with hers. Nemer selected bowls, dishes, and vases by ceramicists Maria Enaes, Karim Rahman, Lea Guetta, Marc Uzan, Céline Angelini, Zineb Zirari, and Julie Descamps, and accompanied the arrangement with a personal letter addressed to Namer. The letter was written on a series of postcards featuring still lifes by Wolfgang Tillmans, Alice Neel, Clara Peeters, Nicolaes Maes, Pieter Claesz, Floris van Dijck, Jan Brueghel, and Gustave van de Woestyne, along with pressed carnation petals strung from threads.
