About the Item

Umo Large Vase by Willem Van Hooff Dimensions: W 50 x D 10 x H 62 cm (Dimensions may vary as pieces are hand-made and might present slight variations in sizes) Material: Glazed Ceramics Core is a serie of vessels. Inspired by Prehistoric African building techniques. I have been fascinated by vessels they have such a clear and easy function. There function is to hold and transport water. But besides that it has been a canvas for humanity to express themselves with. When I started to express myself through this object, a new form of language came out. I wanted to Challenge the contour of a vessels by bringing them out of balance. Each vessel contains a hidden chamber that brings the vessels back into balance by weight of the water they carry. Willem Van Hooff 1992, In my work I want to show the ability of forgotten techniques, products and materials. I want to visualize these forgotten “stories” and give them a new future. I’m interested in a raw style of working with materials, trying to bring my objects to life. For me a good product needs to have a mind, body, and a soul. The mind of the objects because it has to function, the body because it has to look good. And the soul because it needs to have a character. And that soul often gets lots in the apparent perfection of mass production.
