The Tattooed Tableware ceramic collection by ccontinua+mamt is handmade on the pottery wheel by Chiara and decorated by Francesco with special underglaze pencils, exploring how to convert the art of hand-poke tattooing onto clay.
The drawings trigger the imagination of the person eating from the dish, drinking from the cup: the food slowly leaves space to a secret message an inscription, triggering memories, imagination.
The intention of the collection is to give shape to new narratives and domestic rituals, recounting stories on household tableware through a dreamy and primal imaginary.
These contemporary ‘tribal acts’ are distinguished by their dreamlike language, which gracefully merges imagery and words, blending raw marks from delicate souls.
The ceramic integrity is guarantee by a thin transparent glazing layer – which protects the drawings and makes the piece food and drink safe, dishwasher safe and microwave safe.
