PORCELAIN MEETS ORIGAMI
Pure colour focusing on light and shade. Porcelain faceted by origami folds to catch the light, and play with the shadows. The product is the sum of the process and the imperfections tell the story of the making. Kate's current work is inspired by the quiet delight of light and shadow falling across origami folds, revealing the imperfect geometry, the texture and the interrupted surface rhythm so that the light and shadow become part of the work. As the light is constantly changing, the shadows deepen and shift, so the porcelain never looks the same. |
'We find beauty not in the thing itself but in the patterns of shadows, the light and the darkness that one thing against another creates...
Were it not for shadows, there would be no beauty.'
Junichiro Tanizaki, 1933
