About the Item
”Winter Day In Marievik” is an impressive ceramic wall sculpture made by Pekka Paikkari in 2023. This extraordinary piece of art features a unique hand crafted ceramic design layed on a wooden board, displaying the artists own interpertation of a winter´s day. Pekka's abstract approach leaves space for imagination, and his natural work process creates a beautiful analogy for the passing of time.
The back of the board features yet antoher drawn interpertation (sketch) of the same theme. The art piece is in pristine condition and was acquired straight from the artist himself. The piece is signed "Pekka Paikkari 2023".
Pekka's primary material of use is clay. In his own words, he was always fascinated by the way that ice cracks, and using clay gave him an opportunity to replicate that effect. In the production process of his sculptures, the clay is beaten, hit, shaped and molded by hand and other tools such as sticks and bricks and so on. The newly forming, still incomplete ceramic art piece is then let to sit for a while. The surface of the clay pieces start forming different cracks, which will in a way determine the intended final design. Then the clay is fired in the kiln, which will turn it into ceramics. Pekka describes this as "constructing a never ending story". Slowly the final shape starts to flow through Pekka´s higher dimenssions and imagination, and the sculpture is completed.
Although the wall sculpture might look fragile to some, that it is not, on the contrary, it's quite durable, robust and strong.
Pekka Paikkari (1960-) is a very established contemporary ceramic artist from Finland. Pekka has been a designer for Arabia and a founding member of the iconic Arabia Art Department Society since the early 1980s. Paikkari is well known for his sizable unique ceramic sculpures and other unique objects, as well as a number of monumental public sculptures that can be found in different locations in Finland. Pekka made a name for himself with his distinctive style and impressive technique. His works are found in a number of prestigious museums and private collections such as the Hostler Burrows Art Gallery in N.Y., the Museum of Modern Ceramic Art in Gifu Japan, the Faenza Museum of Ceramics in Italy, The British Museum, and the Victoria & Albert Museum, London, England, the Art Collections on the Finnish State, and the Kakkonen Collections, Helsinki, Finland.

Pekka Paikkari
Pekka Paikkari is a ceramic artist living and working in Helsinki, Finland, where he has been a member of the Arabia Art Department Society since 1983. He is primarily known for large-scale wall sculptures, unique sculptural objects and monumental public installations. Using clay as his primary material, Pekkari’s works blur the lines between fine art, design and traditional craft. His expert use of the medium proves a rich analogy for both the human condition, displaying great strength and fragility in equal measure as well as the passing of time, registering as either permanent or ephemeral based on the depth of the lens. His work is included in many prestigious museum collections, including the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Ceramics Museum of Barcelona and the Shigaraki Museum of Contemporary Ceramic Art in Japan, among others.
