Pause (detail), 2015
Earthenware, Underglaze colour, Glass
300mm x 150mm | Photographer: Dominic Tschudin
Lost, deep in the shadows lies a strange world rarely seen but deeply felt. Transitory and in-between, in a constant flux of ebb and flow.
A condition of pure becoming; it shifts like a fog or smoke. Exaggerating, disguising, blurring and creating it's own reality- an act of pure will.
We experience it as if an ever changing jigsaw of images, thoughts, words and smells that drifts by like a cloud that before you can even acknowledge, disappears again.
I want to capture and make still this world, and give just a glimpse of it's mystery and illusion – capturing that moment in-between.
