roger Coll - Sculpture, Happy Collapse orange - 27 cm - Stoneware - 2019

During his residency at the International Ceramics Studio in Hungary, Roger Coll had the
opportunity to experiment with tools, processes, techniques and clays he did not usually
work with. There, Happy Collapse materialized, a clear reference to architecture and to
Roger Coll’s past as a technical architect. A metaphor for the feeling that everything can
collapse, the fall of a building. A sensation of instability, while at the same time
transmitting a strong optimism through color and finish.
