Group of Fluted Bowl-like Ceramic Vessels, Tina Vlassopulos

About the Item

Ode, 2020 (Ceramic, Left to right C. 9 in. h x 5 in. w; 13.75 in. h x 5 in. w; 14.75 in. h x 5 in. w; 9 in. h x 5 in. w, Object No.: 3929) Tina Vlassopulos was born in London in 1954. After graduating from Bristol Polytechnic in 1977, she returned to London to set up her studio. Although the work seems to draw ideas from nature, it is the performing arts, which inspire her. Vlassopulos is focusing on a sense of movement, poise and harmony in each individual piece. She enjoys exploring new designs and ideas and pushing the clay to its limits. Her forms are hand built using colored clays which she mixes using stains and oxides. This produces a palette of elegant, soft colors. Tina then refines and scrapes the form to achieve a smooth surface. Finally the piece is meticulously burnished using a variety of metal spoons and smooth pebbles. Often, the work is grouped together, activating the spaces between the individual pieces and producing a synergy between the elements, thus forming a visual rhythm. The vessels are made with an eye to the possibility of function, but this is balanced by a sculptural context and the concept of a container carries only an aesthetic and symbolic value.

Ruffled Blue and White Cactus-like Ceramic Sculpture, Sandra Davolio
By Sandra Davolio
Located in New York, NY
Coral Vase III, 2023, (Porcelain, C. 11.8 in. h x 5.5 in. diam., Object No.: 4195) Davolio’s sophisticated porcelain works and their organic and natural references are influenced by the Art Nouveau style, the keen interest in the mechanics of futurism, and the minimalist and linear approach typical to Scandinavian Design. In the past 15 years, Davolio has positioned herself as an internationally renowned ceramicist. J. Lohmann Gallery discovered this talented artist in Europe in 2007 and introduced Davolio’s work to the United States in 2008. She has developed a unique oeuvre over several decades that is unparalleled. Her work conveys a deep connection to nature, and in particular to the sea. Davolio herself reveals that she “feels deep devotion and passion while working” and experiences “wonderful peaceful moments when creating something new from raw clay” with her hands. The elaborate porcelain sculptures and vessels suggest organic biomorphic forms, mostly aquatic shapes like coral reefs and undulating leaves. A graduate of The Danish School of Design, Davolio is influenced by the minimalist design aesthetic in Copenhagen, as can be seen in many of the artist’s unique and artistically important creations, in which a series of concentric lamellas emanate from the central column of a vase. She also draws inspiration from the ceramic traditions of ancient Mediterranean...

Unique Ceramic Bowl by Olivia Walker
By Olivia Walker
Located in New York, NY
Nest II, 2022 (Porcelain, C. 4.3 in. H x 7 in. W x 7 in. D., Object No.: 3925) 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...
