Network
Europe 2002
Outline
Project Network is a symposium for recently graduated ceramic
artists at the research canter Guldagergard, Museum of International
Ceramic Art - Denmark. www.ceramic.dk
The
main idea of the project is to create dialogue within the
younger generation of ceramic artists. The participants
came from England, Belgium, Denmark and Sweden.
Guest
artists are invited to work along with the participants
and give lectures on their work and professional carriers.
The program includes workshops in graphic design and photography,
together with profiling and exhibiting work.
A
final exhibition of participants work was held at Grimmerhus,
Museum of International Ceramic Art - Denmark.
Personal
Approach
Form,
as the dominant and most important feature of my pots
is the area I chose to concentrate on during my period
of stay in Denmark. This was a great opportunity to
experiment and develope ideas and new work in dialogue
with fellow participants and invited guest artists.
On
the premise that the technique used to create form influences
the form, I made use of a computer 3D modelling program
during the project in an attempt to evolve fresh shapes
and forms. I did not use the computer as a design tool
but as a piece of new technology that through techniques
such as cloning, distortions and modifiers can generate
forms not typically visualised or created by ceramic
techniques.
