Original artwork description:

Ceramics offers a great variety of surfaces and textures. This series of works started as a way for me to find a colour solution for my sculptures. When I’m doing research, I always make lots of samples, which I study, find what I need and then archive. Sometimes I forget about them and have to go back to get inspired. But this time, they started to develop their own identities, forming new compositions and asking me not to put them in a box, but to give them an audience and a chance to live. They became fully-fledged art objects in their own right. Each one is different. I use experimental methods of colouring. Well, to be honest... I even gave them names.

This one's name is Marichka.

The plywood board is painted with acrylic and varnished. The ceramic elements are fixed to the board using bolts. The mounts are in place, so the work is ready to hang.
The ceramics are fired on six cones. The colour of the ceramic elements is achieved through a complex glazing method.

I would like to point out that the dimensions are given along the diagonals of the rhombus.

Materials used:

ceramics, plywood, metal hardware
