We went to the studio of Ela Bauer she discussed her love
for collecting benches she had a lot of space and stated to pull her works out
of draws and spreading them out. Her work incorporated big amounts of colour
and made you want to touch them. I was most interested in the transparent and
colour combinations joining, as well as the stitching. Her work looked much better worn
on the body rather than flat on a bench. I started thinking about combinations
of metal and silicon.
Next, we visited Peter
Hoogeboom he had his studio within his home, in a small room; it was
interesting to see his setup and how he works from a small space. His work was
very technical with ceramic processes. The pieces he showed us were very
delicate and beautifully coloured with glazes; the pink looking very bodily.
The neckpieces also played with noise as the small ceramic bottle shapes hit
together. The works are cumbersome and heavy but delicate at the same time.
