About the Item

The artist harmoniously combines materials that are seemingly at odds with one another to create his sublime sculptures. He paints porcelain slip onto single sheets of everyday kitchen paper. Jongjin then layers up to 1000 individual sheets of paper to form spectacular millefeuille vessels with amazingly varied and surprising textures. The innovative technique was developed by Park based on his experience with the centuries-old Moonjar craft, a process that evolved during the Imperial Joseon Dynasty (1392-1897). Park was born in South Korea and lives and works in Seoul. He holds an MA in Ceramics from Cardiff University in the UK and is the recipient of several prestigious awards. Object No: # 4127.

Unique Porcelain Sculpture by Olivia Walker
By Olivia Walker
Located in New York, NY
Nest I, 2022 (Porcelain, C. 4.3 in. H x 6.7 in. W x 6.7 in. D., Object No.: 3922) Olivia Walker works in porcelain to create pieces that explore the symbiotic relationship between growth and decay, as well as the relationship between nature and man-made. All of her works start by being thrown on the wheel, before being built upon with thousands of individually-applied fragments of porcelain. Many of her vessels are thrown and altered – they are cut away and reassembled in the leather-hard stage which allows her to deconstruct the form of the bowl and then build up a surface on this new form. Olivia starts from a set point on a bowl and lets these organic accretions spread out and grow – ‘eating through," or growing over the form beneath. They make reference to organisms such as coral and fungus, but remain abstract. Olivia Walker was born in 1985 and lives and works in London. Her work was featured in numerous publications including Emerging Potters Magazine, Clay Craft...
