“Suprematist Four” is a series of four ceramic wall pieces inspired by the formal vocabulary of Suprematism. A square, a diamond, a cross, and a pair of rectangles – each tile features a singular black form, emerging from a smoky white background, rich with raku crackles and burn marks.
The tiles are made from stoneware and fired using the modern raku technique. In this process, each piece is removed from the kiln at bright red heat (around 1000°C) and placed into a container filled with combustible materials, where it undergoes post-firing reduction and smoking. The black shapes are not painted but formed through controlled smoke exposure during this stage. Each crack and shade is the result of fire, smoke, and chance – a collaboration between intention and elemental forces.
This work pays tribute to the legacy of Kazimir Malevich and the radical simplicity of geometric abstraction. At the same time, it invites the viewer to slow down, observe subtle textures, and consider the quiet symbolism of basic forms.
