Ceramics - Beautiful little thing


These ponies, normally made from plastic, do not mean a lot to people, mostly easily replaced. 

I wanted to give them a higher status, by making them from porcelain and glaze them with gold.

At the end I wanted to add something very personal to it, so i gave them some of my own hair.

Materials: 
Porcelain 
Golden/transparant glaze
Human hair

The elements that fascinated me are: - The pieces all together make something new (this can be changed every time). - The role that the owner has towards his own work. - The multifunctional pieces, they can be used for other purposes as well. With this in mind I started thinking about this new project.  Somewhere during the summer holiday I found this pictures of myself. I am around 1 year old. I put it in a frame, and I became more fascinated every time I looked at it. Me being so unaware of what is going to come up to me in live, having so much fun that very moment. I am happy. So I wanted to use this photo of ...

Tetris is your friend, or isn't it?

The next project I am about to start goes like this: I want to make a closet but not just a normal closet but one that doesn't stand on the ground but hangs on the wall, like a painting.  I do not make shelves in it as well, so the pieces stand just on top of each other.  With pieces I mean the 5 shapes that are used in the 'Tetris game'. I would like to call all the pieces together table ware. Although it are only 5 shapes and they are only good for little dishes, table ware is still the best specification .  The part where it involves my point of view as an artist is that this 'painting' can be reorganised by the owner, and I like the fact that because of all the pieces standing op top of each other you can't take what ever you want you have to find your way through.  The repetition of the shapes make the whole work together a very interesting piece of art to look at. I started by working out the shapes/components in paper to get an impr...
