Efflorescence I
-
Description
Efflorescence I, is a unique handcrafted porcelain sculpture completely covered in a multitude of individually made porcelain flowers of all different shapes and forms by the British artist Vanessa Hogge.
Vanessa Hogge breathes life into her clay in the form of dahlias, chrysanthemums, agapanthus, daisies, agaves and roses. Inspired by her passion for all things botanical, and influences as diverse as Frida Kahlo, Georgia O’Keefe and Marianne North.
Grounded by years of expertise in ceramics, she takes an instinctive, visceral approach to each piece, painstakingly sculpting every petal and anther by hand so that no two flowers are identical. Her creations are organic and ornate, stylized and purposeful but with an element of spontaneity.
The pieces are fired at high temperatures transforming the porcelain into ossified shades of white. Striking as singular statement pieces, these can also be grouped to create still lives and wall installations. Where the porcelain brings subtlety the stoneware brings drama. -
