Andi works with a vocabulary of forms and palette of finishes, which evoke the archaic and primordial. Most of the work is low-fired white earthenware clay. To give the illusion of a time-wrought patina, ceramic finishes involve the appplication of acids to achieve oxidation and rusting. Her sculptures and vessels derive from tribal, biological, botanical, mechanical and architectonic references.

Henrique Oliveira, the Brazilian emerging artist known for his spatial wooden pieces whose irregular forms devour large spaces which give you the sense that you are actually inhabiting someone’s body
”I believe that the message is never art itself, but instead, the lack of a message is a characteristic that makes some creations interesting to me…my works may propose a spatial experience, an aesthetic feeling, a language development and many more nominations to refer to the relation it establishes with the viewer. But, any attempt to find a message would fail.”. - Henrique Oliveira

Erosion by Tamsin van Essen. Who knew parasitic invasion could be so beautiful?
van Essen on her project:
This work explores erosion and the disruption of form. Focusing on biological erosion, I wanted to convey the idea of a host being attacked and eaten away by a parasitic virus, highlighting the creeping spread of the infection as it corrupts the body. I have produced a series of angular porcelain forms, sandblasted to wear the surface and reveal inner strata. This aggressive process, contrarily, creates a delicate vulnerability in the shape. The translucency of the porcelain and the interruption of the surface make it possible to glimpse through to layers beneath, creating a tension between the seen and the obscured.
Amazing.. :D
