The Bond vase was born from the combination of Huillet Lucas’s ceramic work and the practice of bondage. The anthropomorphic forms of the deformations collide and come together. The whole is contained by a cordage created in Shibari.
Shibari means “attached, tied”; this word is used in Japan to describe the art of tying packages, while in the West, it refers to the art of bondage (“kinbaku” in Japanese).
Although the practice evokes a certain level of violence through the restriction of movement, it is actually an art that is carried out with profound respect for the person or object being tied. The cordage must be applied with the right tension; the knots distribute, amplify, or release the forces it exerts around the piece, depending on their orientation and tightness, all without ever harming, damaging, or breaking the thing being tied.
It’s all about balance.
