AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Max Modolo - Vase Sculpture “Cocoon”
Style: Modern, Italian/Japanese, Wabi-Sabi, Imperfection, Calm, Minimalism, Natural materials, Earthy color palette
Stoneware. Firing temperature 1240°C. Biomorphic vase with an exploded rim. Textured glaze in shades of black, dark grey, white, ivory, and cream. Mineral gold drippings and craters.
Max:
“My artistic experimentation in the field of ceramics is linked to both shapes and textures; I am very interested in the effects of ceramics and glazes obtained by some Italian artists, such as Guido Gambone and Marcello Fantoni, I have always been attracted by the shapes created by Lucie Rie and Hans Coper; recently I have been interested in the German ceramics of the 60s and 70s, known as Fat Lava ceramics.
My greatest achievement is to be able to create a work that in structure and final appearance is as close as possible to what is envisaged in my mind. In creating ceramic works, in glazing them, in firing them I feel a deep joy, I hope that it will somehow be transmitted to my pieces.”
