Hand-crafted ceramic cup with distorted geometry. Blue Fish Collection
Made of porcelain this cup is carefully crafted using the slip casting technique, hand-painted with cobalt-oxide, and coated in glossy transparent glaze. The process of creation starts from the dust and consists of multiple phases, it takes two weeks to make an object, it is a slow object that speaks of the process, please see the section Made by Hand.
The Collection adopts the decorative rhythm of the sea. The fishes are the obsession of the circumference. They send us toward the immensity of this world. I believe we are, in a strange way, fishes in the mother's belly, before becoming humans. This collection is an elegy of the blue water and sky, to being humans connected with the waves. Every piece is different cause it is hand-painted, each touched by the hands of the craftsman.
