The Delicate Art of Diplomacy depicts two noble houses engaging in sensitive discussions about sovereignty. Ceramic figures move about in four scenes: Meeting, Engagement, Negotiations and Discord. This dance of diplomacy conveys shifting patterns in group body language, communication and tension. An evocative cello score amplifies the rising tension and discord.
"The diplomat is an artist who paints a landscape and tries to convince the other that the landscape is reality. The response is another work of art." George Friedman. Geopolitical Futures. June 13 2018.
