    Description

    The SUBSRANCE series is wall pieces in porcelain. The series is focusing on the meeting between two creative principles: the designed construction and the imprint of natural forces.

    Traditionally ceramic glaze is a surface on an object.
    In this work the glaze is creating a shape itself.
    The shaping takes place in the glowing heat of the ceramic kiln.
    It is a powerful and poetic transformation ruled by natural forces
    – the heat, the gravity and the physical reactions.

    Basic materials from the ground are transformed to moving mases with a complexity in tactility and palette.
    The dynamic qualities of the melting glaze are revealed by a manmade shape
    – an edge, an order, a recognisable geometry.
    The earthy feeling of the glaze is contrasted by the purity of the refined porcelain.

    About Signe Fensholt Visit Showroom →

    Signe Fensholt is a Copenhagen based ceramic artist. In her work she leaves part of the creative process to the magic of the ceramic materials and the natural forces in the ceramic kiln. Like a choreographer she sets the stage, give her instructions and let go. The transformation of soil and dust into sparkling surfaces and crisp shapes is still visible as traces of creation. The performative aspect of ceramic materials is a focal point in the way she works as well as in the final results. She works in the interface between design and art keeping a reference to a shape or a function that we easily recognize but with another agenda than finding a solution for a practical need. She graduated 2018 from The Royal Danish Academy of Design. Since her graduation she has been selected for major exhibitions and has received several grants for her artistic practice.
