Christina Muff, Danish ceramicist. Organic vessel made from raw, unglazed clay.

About the Item

Christina Muff, contemporary Danish ceramicist (b. 1971). Organic vessel made from raw, unglazed clay. The clay has been washed carefully, after being shaped, to make the surface more textured. This is a unique piece. Signed. In perfect condition. Dimensions: W 24.0 cm. x H 16.0 cm. Technique - Christina Muff’s forms are modelled by hand using ancient techniques; hand-modelling, coil- and mould-building. Starting with smooth slabs of clay she slowly shapes the intricate sculptures by hand, a time consuming task as the forms require significant drying time in the process as the sculptures are most often large and detailed. When glazing Christina Muff employs various combinations of glazing techniques including brushing, dipping, pouring and many forms are fired numerous times to achieve the desired surface and colour. The objective is to achieve texture and surface that resembles man made items that nature has reclaimed. Bio - Christina Muff, contemporary ceramicist (b. 1971) studied design in Copenhagen at Margretheskolen in the 1990’s and later at TEKO center in Herning, Denmark. She has worked in various media including painting, textiles, graphics and silver. Having had commercial successes in the fields of graphic art and jewellery, Christina now recognizes clay as her primary medium. Always self employed Christina has lived in the US, Saudi Arabia and Europe, today residing in her native country of Denmark where her ceramic studio is located in the outskirts of Copenhagen.
