One-of-a-kind Slender and Sculptural Decorative Vessel in White Porcelain

About the Item

Titled "Andromeda", from classical Greek mythology, this one-of-a-kind, hand-sculpted white glazed porcelain vessel by New York-based ceramicist and artist Jenny Min, employs ornately naturalistic decorative motifs, both marine and vegetal - here, seashells and fleshy sprays of foliage - conveying a dramatic, contemporary Rococo sensibility. Sinuous, asymmetrical curves diffused throughout add vibrance and depth to the diminutive but sturdy piece. Finished in a soft, matte-white glaze, the exceptional artistry of Min's work is apparent in the fine details of the hand-formed vessel, and it is at once both minimalistic and highly expressive. Artist Information: Jenny Min is a ceramicist based in New York City. She utilizes a perspective of discovery and symphonic tension that mirrors her experiences. In 2009, Min graduated from New York University and studied at Steinhardt School of Art for ceramics. After graduation, Min moved to Florence, Italy to learn under the tutelage of master potter Romano Pampaloni. For the better part of a decade she would develop a precision-based throwing technique that appreciates the pressure of perfection and the discovery in surprise — a philosophy that values the contextual balance of imposing upon and reacting to the medium. Min returned to New York City in 2016 and in that same year started her practice working out of Greenwich House Studio. She would go on to do residencies back in Italy at Capoldio in 2018 and at Rights of Passage, a Barnard College-sponsored residency in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Infused in Min’s work is an openness to discovery and a continual re-discovery of the effective ratio between creative chaos and control. Undergirding this whole approach is an innate assumption that “Everything is Good.” So with each vessel, sculpture, and plate, Min wrestles with subject, materials, and herself. This intimate introspection and raw celebration are portrayed in the texture of her work as each object is appreciated for its “is-ness” rather than its societal role.
