About the Item
This sculpture is part of the sculptor’s most recent work, in which she uses paper porcelain (porcelain with 0.5% paper fibre added for greater flexibility) to create organic, dynamic and natural shapes. The artist tests the physical limits of the material (its collapse during firing) and plays with the balance between the full and empty spaces created by the shapes. She assembles different pieces to build her sculptures, but because of this process of collapsing, the final result after firing is always open to the unexpected. Colour is an important feature of this sculptural production, likely to elicit an emotional or psychological response from the observer. The linear patterns on the surface follow the viewer’s gaze along the curves, accentuating the soft, light, fluid look of the sculptures.

Simcha Even-Chen
The abstract porcelain sculptures by Israeli artist Simcha Even-Chen explore themes of tension and balance, the opposition between chance and planning, stability and movement. The harmony of her sculptures is achieved through the combination of shapes, colours and geometric patterns. Her creative process is guided by a scientific approach based on her experience as a biologist. Simcha Even-Chen’s work has been exhibited in museums, galleries, art centres and biennales around the world. Her sculptures have joined international museum collections specialising in ceramics, as well as private collections. “My sculptures belong to the abstract art, they are autonomous objects that stand independent of narrative. As autonomous sculptures they challenge the viewer to flow their imagination and interpretation.”

Perry Haas is a ceramic artist making functional pottery and focusing on wood-firing techniques. Drawing from a love for the wood-fired ceramic surface, Perry looks to anticipate the manner in which ash in the kiln will collect in different arrays across the convex and concave surfaces of his gestural clay forms.
“I approach making with a childlike spirit of experimentation and exploration. My work stems from a love of the wood fired ceramic surface, particularly how it evokes many beautiful natural phenomena. Like imagining the way wind gathers and deposits leaves on a landscape according to changes in topography, I anticipate the manner in which ash will collect differently on the convex and concave surfaces of my gestural forms. These functional pots are developed as a place for this surface to exist and to be enjoyed as a part of our daily life.”—Haas
