'Her Masters Voice' Totem – by Selma Hamstra

About the Item

The collection of Rotterdam based designer Selma Hamstra was launched during Milan Design Week 2021. 'Her Masters Voice' collection contains glass designs that are created to question the craft. Searching for a balance between the skills of a master glassblower and their apprentice. The collection is made up of objects that invite viewers to examine craft and the meaning of mastership. Providing a stage to let questions arise; do you see the qualities of the master and how do we value the imperfections from the learning hand of a young craftsman? What does it mean to be a master? Is the quality of education good enough to become a master? Master Glassblower: Gert Bullée Young Glassblower: Selma Hamstra Cold Worker: Albert Seubring About the Designer: Studio Selma Hamstra explores the fields of craft and design. She aims to contribute to the revaluation of the crafts culture. She is setting up her own 'hotshop' for the experiments of artists and designers. Perhaps asking questions about the meaning of craft and mastery, is the most important aspect of her practice. Please note that the collection is handmade and invites you to think about the meaning of craft and it's mastership. In this collection you will find components made by a master and made by a young glassblower. Therefore you will see a difference in skills.

Alan Wallwork Vessel Vase Pottery Sculpture TOTEM White Brown Terracotta
Located in BUNGAY, SUFFOLK
Alan Wallwork (1931-): Organic landscape sculptural vessel, 1960-1965 Exhibiting the articulated, inventive, organic qualities & tactility of Wallwork’s early oeuvre for which he is best known - This sculptural landscape vessel has been handmade by coiling, slabbing and shaping the clay. The totemic form and pitted and pierced surfaces draw on the abstract landscape and tactility of elements in nature. matte glazes and oxides have been skillfully used to enhance the rich textures of the surfaces and the organic aesthetic. - Wallwork is one of the great individualists in British pottery, developing an archetypal language that echoed some of the wider artistic obsessions of that period, what the art critic Herbert Read called the “postwar ferment” of sculptural activity. - This piece was made during 1960-1965, the time that Wallwork was sharing a studio in Greenwich with Bernard Rooke and comes from a private collection along with a waterscape vase by Rooke and a bottle by Robert Fournier...
