VISIONS IN CLAY || Reimagining ceramics with contemporary installations
When you think of ceramics, what comes to mind?
The first images that come to mind are likely cozy cups of tea served in hand-thrown ceramic cups, floral arrangements in ceramic vases or maybe even unique candleholders. However, ceramic art isn’t limited just to tableware; Artelier has uncovered an innovative way for us to integrate ceramic art into our living spaces aside from designer tableware with their intriguing ceramic art wall installations.

The ceramic wall art collection by Vasso Fragkou expresses the fluidity of the medium on a grander scale, evoking a sense of movement with rhythmic, overlapping waves that are frozen in time. The same shape and form if executed using another material would instil a markedly different feeling in the beholder; imagine the undulating waves using paper or fabrics, and you will appreciate the elevated elegance brought about by the use of clay. The gently overlapping layers of clay set against ethereal lighting establish a soothing ambiance for the entire room.

On the other hand, ceramic mosaics in the hands of Marie Minhac take on a uniquely painterly, expressive quality. Each mosaic tile becomes a brushstroke, building on the abstract composition. Impressionistic landscapes emerge from her compositions: swirling waters, gardens and forests seem to appear and vanish. The large-format ceramic wall murals serve to anchor the space and can extend from floor to ceiling to add a sense of openness.
