Category: Ceramics
Description: Ceramics, castIn this work I deal with the theme of the given space. Contrary to ‘less is more’, I try to fill the limited space completely. How much fits in? How much of what? Precise dimensions with imprecise means, a mindless precision of the imprecise. A seriousness of the banal. This precision is represented by means of a mould made of clay, which is hollow. The result is a paradox in which emptiness takes up most of the space. More and more becomes less and less.
