As a French language drop out in high school…I didn’t fare very well in Spanish either, we will let the work of Fabienne Christyn tell her story. She works primarily in white porcelain creating large sculptural installations as well as jewelry. Fabienne’s work was pinned by Amalthee-Creations, another artist who ‘cuts to the chase’ and creates powerful designs with an innate simplicity.

Australian artist, Katherine Wheeler, received a BFA in Gold and Silversmithing, but her recent work has moved her toward the delicate materials of porcelain, paper and thread. “Wheeler mainly makes sculptural jewellery, and hollowware that combine materials such as thin silver, porcelain, paper and thread. The works and materials are often ‘camouflaged’ under white paint, to create a new skin for the forms which are anthrophomorphic, the white bleaches the forms leaving them with the appearance of shell or bone.”
Retaining Fluidity

Monica Rudquist works primarily in porcelain and is know for her distinctive spiral design. “I love forming a piece of clay on the wheel while it is in a fluid state and I am compelled to create forms which retain this fluidity and gesture,” the Minneapolis artist explains. “I am curious about how far I can push the clay. I test these limits by cutting and recombining thrown forms. This begins a dialogue with the clay that spurs more questionsand responses to the developing form. I choose to work with traditionally functional objects because it introduces the possibility of creating sculptural forms that relate to people on a personal level.”

This must be my week to focus on color…Monday Cinnamon…Tuesday White. I was drawn to the white bracelets by Alexis Bittar because of their composition…metal and papier-mache. This combination of materials opens up a world of possibilities.
