Charlotte Kølkjær, the ceramic artist behind Sugoi Studio, explores the beauty and indulgence of life through hyper-realistic sculptures in white stoneware. From ashtrays and half-empty plates to oyster shells, Kølkjær’s creations are symbols of decadence—the remnants of a night well-lived. In her hands, these “ugly leftovers” are polished, over-aestheticized, and perfected, challenging conventional beauty and celebrating moments of unapologetic indulgence. With a hint of self-irony, her work examines the millennial obsession with aestheticizing everyday life, from the curated chaos of “not-trying-too-hard” social media images to her fondness for seashells and vintage typography. Through meticulous detail and a touch of nostalgia, Kølkjær invites us to see these fragments as moments worth celebrating, polished, and perfected in their imperfection.
