“THEIR PLAYFUL & AMBIGUOUS ARRANGEMENTS OF SCULPTURAL CERAMICS REFERENCE ARCHITECTURAL FORMS & FUNCTIONAL OBJECTS TO EXPLORE THE VERSATILITY & POTENTIAL OF THE VESSEL FORM.”
Studio MC are interested in utilising the versatility of clay to embrace chance and unpredictability. Referencing primary shapes and architectural forms they experiment with the connotations of vessel forms, which play with the distinction between art objects and functional ceramics.
Studio MC’s objects make use of various techniques including coil-built intuitive forms, contrasting with uniform, slab-built or wheel-thrown shapes. Their arrangements promote a deep interest and understanding of shape and fascination that with a slightly different bend of the silhouette the aura and formal vocabulary of a vessel can change completely.
