The Fabulous Ceramics Designer(3)




From the designer Sarah Grove:
"By parodying sumptuous upholstery and rich textured fabrics which even when old and sagging suggest comfort and luxury, I use porcelain to make functional vessels for the home such as jugs and vases."
"There is a contrast between the soft pillow forms of the fabric and the cold unyielding nature of the porcelain. Simplicity of form balances the rich surfaces and is enhanced by the whiteness and translucency of the clay and by using only transparent glaze. The imprints of my fingers are left on the interiors of the pots to affirm the presence of the maker in each piece. "

These beautiful works come from up in the air somewhere, Chicago-based artist and designer Susan Dwyer. the designer said :"inspired by the clean, minimal lines found in industrial architecture. The silos, warehouses and watertowers that dot the Chicago landscape are transformed into elegant vases, votives and planters. ” designer has became " translator " between industrial architecture and handmade works.
Maybe we also could say designers just like translators, not in different languages, but in a wide spectrum of elements from materials, concepts, abstract idear to the final works.

很喜欢荷兰设计师Jorine的作品:Tea Time,很可爱,也很像外星人使用的瓷器,哈哈。设计师说自己的“作品像独立存在的生命一样,拥有自己的个性和特征,有时,它们就像是来自童话世界里一样。这些作品也让哦我们觉得像是生活在另一个世界。”

Love the collection of Tea Time from Dutch designer Jorine. very cute and lovely, much like the tablewares that used by extra-terrestrial,hahaha:P the designer said "Working mainly in ceramics / porcelain. My products becom e characters, like individual things that seem to live their own life. They have their own identity and personality. Sometimes they seem to come from a fairytale-world. Products making us feel like being in a different world. "
