About Melanie Sherman:
I am a ceramic artist, working mainly with porcelain and focusing on lavish surface decoration. My work references exclusive and precious porcelain wares from 18th-century Europe as I seek to capture the qualities for which porcelain has been known since its discovery thousands of years ago in China: whiteness, translucency, and resonance. I am attracted to the enameled and lustered surfaces of the Baroque, Renaissance, and Rococo porcelain designs as well as elaborations on structural elements from these time periods. I explore surface ornamentations and embellished shapes to gain more knowledge for my own studio practice. I am interested in incorporating and referencing historic drawings, motives, and patterns into my work using traditional decorating methods, such as blue and white painting, china painting, flocking, gilding, gold luster, gold leaf, and gold powder applications. I am also fascinated by Kintsugi, the traditional mending technique from Japan, where broken pieces are put together with pine glue and gold powder; this process shows the history of the piece while telling the story through its golden cracks.
Studying the history of ceramics, I have been captivated by the relationship between East and West and how they continue to influence each other, especially through the ceramic arts. Although there might be considerable differences between the two civilizations, the cultural exchange between them is an important connector of history and has produced a long and rich exchange of ideas between artists and makers. Asian craft traditions have been handed down to the West, and the handmade aspect—even within the factory setting—is still an important concept that allows for the artist’s control of design and quality, which is essential within the craft of the West.
