About the Item
Bone China emerged as a reflection on the relationship between synthetic and organic aesthetic properties. By fusing the two, Ramsay has attempted to create a kind of hybrid object that while alluding to both, partakes in neither.
Each Bone China piece is the result of an intuitive, meditative interaction with the piece of bone in which new volume is added and refined. This process is repeated until a final form is achieved in which the boundaries between the original, organic, and new, synthetic elements are lost. The white finish completes the work by obscuring much of the surface detail of the bone leaving behind an object that defies categorization and frustrates attempts to identify technique, material or provenance.

Bevan Ramsay
Bevan Ramsay is a Canadian contemporary artist and sculptor, born in 1977. He completed his first post-graduate degree in Fine Arts, in 1994 and trained as a cabinet-maker and completed an apprenticeship in antique restoration. His artistic practice focuses on the dialogue between expectation and frustration, in which there can be no clear resolution. By exploring contradictory perspectives of a subject, his sculptures and installations do not seek unity, but rather admit paradox as a basic feature of human experience. He is a native of Montréal and is currently based in Norfolk, Connecticut.
