Pieces of Π

Last Wednesday I graduated at ABK Maastricht. The show following was great, nice

weather and lots of people visiting. Down below you can read where I have been

working on.

I do not think it is necessary to make the perfect mold. I accept the mistakes, which

are normally not wanted.These mistakes become a characteristic of the product and

tell a lot about it’s processing. They make the product even more beautiful.

Production.

It has been a while since the last time, but a have kept myself busy. After the last

go no go I really made some good progress in producing ceramics. Although, as you can

see, it doesn’t turn out so well every time. With 3 more weeks to go until the

graduation show I want to have production running at full speed so I will have

enough to show for.

Decisions

The first go or no go is coming soon, so time has come to make a first decision. 

Experiments gave some good and interesting results and it was a lot of fun to do. I

felt like a child in a zoo, impatient to wait to see what else would come. Now a have

to take a good look at the results and try to make it mine all together.

Experiment

After a month of playing I’m still puzzled which way to follow. 

Every single way seems to lead me in to a jungle of possibilities. Here you see the

stuff you also find in baby dipers and such, covered up in clay powder.

This picture shows the end to one road. Time to go in opposite direction.
