INTERPRETATION

Inspired by clouds, inspired by skies, an interpretation made in porcelain

THE BIRD AND THE STARS

Some little decorations very easy to make from a tomato paste tube ;)
To give, to share ...

ONE YEAR

From a project I made in 2018 ... One year in the life of a Tilia
Every month I photographed and collected a piece of my favourite linden tree
I then imprinted those little branches and leaves on porcelain slabs
One page for each month like a calendar
In each the body of the tree is documented

SHADOWS

Each morning throughout February 2022 I drew the shadows of the lemon tree as they were projected on the kitchen window sometime between 8:45am and 9:30am. The sketches had to be done quickly most days as the shadows moved fast and there were many details to register. Above are just six examples. A couple of days there was no sun or enough light, hence no shadows. A couple of drawings were destroyed by the cats in the meantime :/ ... I have 24 out of 28 days. A little video of the process here

FEBRUARY MORNINGS

Every sunny February morning I thought of Matisse' cut-outs and how difficult it is to catch moving shadows
