The post Let There Be Chaos: This Sculptor Makes – and Breaks appeared first on MobiSpirit.
]]>According to the Peled, her creative process is consistent with the Kabbalah concepts of Shevirah (breaking) and Tikkun (mending) which can also be considered as a renewal. “I make, then break, then make again,” she shared with CFile. “Chaos, destruction, and decay are intense and necessary creative process for me to create each of my sculptures.”
This process includes producing the ceramic shards herself, using a slab roller. “I make sheets of clay, fire them, and smash them into pieces with a hammer,” she explained. “I love playing with the idea of the texture and the form can look airy, delicate, light and fluffy and to give a sense of flutter, as if my breath would break it. Yet, the hard and sharp shards can be seen as round and moving, and give a sense of softness.”
Her work has been exhibited internationally at venues like Sotheby’s, Saatchi Gallery (London), and the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art (Kansas City); and has also been featured in top tier publications like Vogue, O Magazine, and Elle. But you can also follow her creative journey on Instagram.

]]>The post Mind-Bending Porcelain Sculptures By Juliette Clovis appeared first on MobiSpirit.
]]>A central point of Clovis’s work is a representation of a woman, though, in most of her works, the human figure is not present, and is replaced by wildlife and floral elements. The pieces she works on somehow move between picturing the announcements of the birth of a new living being, human bodies that are half-animals, half-vegetables and death caused by a disenfranchised nature that wants its rights back. The main topic she is focused on is metamorphosis, and that’s visible through symbols of snakes, butterflies or eggs, that are already known to the history of art.
In her works, Clovis mixes times and cultures, trying to create communication between modern and traditional worlds. Her art is using a traditional medium, and already known symbols, but the pieces she makes are unique and modern, as well as the issues she’s focused on.
After finishing extensive studies in art history, law, sculpture and graphic design, Clovis has exhibited her work in many international contexts during the last ten years.
We found her art quite appealing, and we recommend visiting her Instagram account for more!

]]>Her sculptural vessels have sharp repeated shapes and striking color combinations. Rodriguez uses a mix of uncolored and pigmented porcelain to create layers of thin spikes which frame the gaping holes in the rounded vessels, resulting to sea urchin-like sculptures.
In addition to her sharp-edged porcelain artworks, Rodriguez also makes suspended installations and crafts fine jewelry as part of her ceramic practice. Scroll down to see her latest creations.

]]>Having studied fashion design at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago she has built props for advertising campaigns in Manhattan before earning her MFA from Hunter College, where she was accepted into the painting program only to be captivated by clay.
Her ceramic and porcelain creations were featured in numerous exhibitions at key galleries and museums, including the Galerie Perrotin, Seoul and the Galerie Perrotin, New York.
“It’s easy to find art in the abject, that touches some dark discord,” she told Galerie, “but I think it’s possible to make work that is relevant and beautiful.”
Check out some of her work below.
