Kintsugi Study Triptych: Ceramic Panels Repaired with Silver by TJ Volonis

About the Item

Title: Kintsugi Study, #12 (Kazan - volcano), Kintsugi Study, #13 (Fields and Valley), Kinstugi Study, #11 (Crossroads) Year: 2015 Each 23.5-inch square reclaimed ceramic panel has been broken and repaired using the traditional Japanese art of kintsugi ('to repair with gold' - in this case, they were repaired with silver). The technique and aesthetics connect to Buddhist principals of transience which values and highlights the visible wear of objects, reflecting their life and experience - - a philosophy that is readily applied to each of us in our own lives. *Please feel free to call us. _________________ ABOUT THE ARTIST: A self-taught artist, TJ Volonis’ creative work incorporates a wide variety of themes: Human biological processes, the natural world and man's relationship to it, hidden systems, technology and contemporary culture, and the implicit balance between order and chaos, among others. He views his work as a collaboration between the material with its limitations and his own intentions and designs. TJ received a BA in Japanese Studies from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. After graduating, he moved to Brooklyn and has been a resident of the borough for the last 15 years, designing furniture and creating art for the last 11 of those years. He lives in Park Slope and works out of a metalworks studio in Gowanus. His work has appeared in: Architectural Digest, LUXE, The New York Observer, Wallpaper* Magazine, Elle Decor, Lonny Magazine, Freshome, Design Milk, Core 77, Artsicle, Gotham Gazette, and Examiner. He was also selected as one of NYC's top emerging artists in December of 2011 and 2013 and was the 2005 Best Emerging Artist in Mixed-Media at the GLAAD OUTAuction.
