Remember when we showed you the Conor Harrington (interviewed) piece for the upcoming FAME Festival last week? Well, what we didn’t tell you was that Grottaglie, the town where the festival will be held, is famous for its ceramic tradition dating back hundreds of years. As part of this years festivities, artists are invited to experiment with local artisans on various projects, which has so far yielded some pretty fantastic ceramic plates by Conor. This is not the first time urban/street art and ceramics has mixed. Hopefully, there will be other artists putting their own unique twist on other projects.
Check out many more pics of the ceramic plates as well as more pics of the mural piece Conor put up after the jump…
