LOCULE SCULPTURE
The Locule sculpture balances two smooth, ripple-edged forms reminiscent of sea slugs or driftwood shaped by the tide. They stand like caught in an embrace, leaning delicately against one another.
Yiorgos Trichas channels the rhythms of the Cycladic landscape that shaped him. The sculpture’s deep mahogany colour catches light like sun-warmed wood. And yet, each curve traces movement as if these pieces might take off swimming into the air.
The Locule sculpture meets the eye from every angle and deserves a place of prominence in a darkly furnished kitchen with low lights flashing across its liquid surface
Yiorgos Trichas’ (b. 1982, Athens, Greece) journey starts in Syros where he was brought up.
Syros offered him a unique sense of freedom and a deep appreciation of art as an essential part of the quotidian. It is the memory of that place that brings him back to his raw state; it reminds him of who he is and who he wants to be.
It is there that he draws his inspiration from; the Cycladic light streaming in through the shutters, the smell of bare earth, the pastel hues, the neoclassical architecture.
As a speech therapist, Trichas gets daily reminders that in life, there is plenty of room to change and reshape, once you bring something back to its unprocessed, unrefined state and resculpt it.
The making of ceramics is no different; the creator imagines, handles, manipulates, sculpts, withdraws and ponders the result.
Lorem ipsum, or lipsum as it is sometimes known, is dummy text used in laying out print, graphic or web designs. The passage is attributed to an unknown typesetter in the 15th century who is thought to have scrambled parts of Cicero’s De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum for use in a type specimen book.
