Ancient Memories – je eklektická kolekcia ručne modelovaných vysoko pálených kameninových váz a nádob. Kolekcia doplňujúca moju tvorbu posledných rokov – počas ktorých sa venujem obľúbeným témam, ktoré pretransformovávam a spájam jednou základnou formou. Formou ktorá je pojidlom mojej niekoľkoročnej obsesie a sústredenia. Na poslednej samostatnej výstave Od súmraku do úsvitu – ktorá bola žiaľ vzhľadom na […]

Art annotation: non-fiction film about design, 12:46min, book volume. Kristína Dzuričková, 2020 The situation we find ourselves in as a result of the pandemic has made me think about design but also about myself differently.

Transformation/Transformation Where transformation works, the stereotype will not survive. When we experience transformation, we are part of a micro evolution. Transformation is evolution without the presence of a stereotype, although a stereotype can be a catalyst for such transformation. The internal theme of the tables plays with the idea of work and its sensuality, value and existential necessity. Not everything we do brings us satisfaction, but we believe that the purpose of [...]

Katarína Raškovičová

The project explores a utilitarian object - a jug. It deals with new shape solutions and different principles of grip that lead the viewer to reconsider established canons. The shapes of jugs break away from archetypal forms and move towards surprising new solutions. The jugs are created through the technology of porcelain modelling, gradually building up the shape, allowing the maker to constantly reassess internal and external material relationships. After [...]

Pelike - my latest series of objects/vases, is named after traditional Greek ceramic vessels. Thematically, I am building on previous projects, but formally I am returning to a specific representation of a figure I have dealt with several times in the past. The consideration of figurative sculpture in this work is linked to a personal experience of corporeality and to the metaphor of the body as vessel. [...]

James Shaw, United Kingdom

James Shaw works mainly with exploring the material side of matter, but he also focuses on a practical approach. His work often takes into account the resources around us that challenge the idea of 'waste' in the creation of new beautiful materials. Waste plastics are a key theme in his Plastic Baroque series. You will see James Shaw's work at the Apponyi Palace. https://jamesmichaelshaw.co.uk/

Ward Wijnant, Netherlands

Ward uses his objects to highlight the importance of craft. Craftsmanship methods combined with universal materials embody a particular aesthetic. This is exactly what Ward wants to point out in his designs - how materials and the way they are processed influence shape. He wants to show materials from a new perspective and with a fresh look at ancient craft techniques. You can see Ward Wijnat's work at the Apponyi Palace. [...]
