Abstract

This is a work of exploring the language of form, regarding the parts of the sculpture that gather in the whole part of form, a sculpture without any meaning at all. A one of a kind sculpture.

I worked with blocks and from these blocks I created the form by carving. A soft surface was done by a lot of sanding.

Material: plaster
Size: 25x16 cm, Ø 27 cm

 
Silence 1.jpg

Silence

My intention of this serie was to create sculptures that expresses silence. The silence can be interpreted as a person that is within herself and shut out from the world in silence. I modeled a shape of a head in stoneware and keept the eyes closed for the expression.

Subtle closeness

I worked with this theme of closeness as an composition and a sense of being close fyscially and I explored that even if there is closeness it can be the sense of movement, of getting away. The pieces are made in white stoneware with a smooth and subtle surface for the expression of softness.

Small bodies

I throwned these small bodies and I wanted them to have a sense of human character, a body with a twist and not perfect but still okey.

The small bodies were placed on a round throwned plate of stoneware and finally the whole form was glazed with a mix of white and black glaze and the colour turned out in a subtle blue colour after firing.
