CANDID CONVERSATIONS WITH JEREMY ANDERSON

In this candid video conversation, Prospect Refuge Gallery founder Victoria Sass sits down with celebrated ceramic artist Jeremy Anderson to reflect on the meaning behind Homecoming: Objects of Origin, the gallery’s inaugural exhibition. Together, they explore how Anderson’s return to his home state of Minnesota marks more than just a personal milestone, it signals a shift in where important design conversations are happening.

The two discuss Sass’s mission to “export the Midwest” by spotlighting the region’s creative depth and “import the world” through exhibitions that connect global makers to a new kind of audience. Anderson shares insights from his career in New York and beyond, offering a unique perspective on why the next chapter of collectible design might be rooted in the quiet power of place.

From memory and material to representation and regional pride, this dialogue offers a thoughtful, casual take on where design is going, and why the Midwest might be its next frontier.
