PHASE 77
The beautiful material of porcelain is most of the time at least in European tradition being squeezed into a molds in order to copy predefined shape and depict object or figures and than being covered by another precious materials. It’s nature beauty and qualities are hidden behind the shiny surface.
For me there are three key words related to porcelain. Material, process and time. In order to find out what porcelain is and could be it seem not enough to keep on surface I wanted to see more, to see inside. I wanted to feel the heaviness to see the cracks to trace the fights among the materials. I wanted to enjoy the process to put hands full of glaze just to the middle of the mixture and let the fire accomplish the shaping.
It is not a statement it is just one phase among many others what remains.
