Monika Gedrimaite (b. 1990) is ceramics artist based in Vilnius. Artist explores the dialectic between the vessel as material and conceptual formation. Gedrimaitė is interested in utilitarian foundation of a vessel and new possibilities of use. By universalizing the meaning of a vessel, ceramicist reduces recognition of an object until only a trace remains. Using the technical methods of creating and deconstructing ceramics, Gedrimaitė presents the objects of an imaginary function, which are not necessarily related to the original purpose, giving them a new concept of a vessel.
