STOMATA SERIES - VASE 2 (white clay)
The Stomata Series Vase #2 by Anna Karountzou exemplifies the perfect harmony between the natural elements and traditional craftsmanship. Handcrafted from off-white stoneware clay and adorned with volcanonic rocks gathered by the artist herself on the island of Santorini, this vase embodies Anna's meticulous attention to detail as well as her artistic aesthetic.
Glazed with a clear finish on the inside and fired at 1240°C, Vase #2 is water-tight making it set for showcasing floral arrangements. With its textured surface and timeless form reflecting the rugged beauty of Santorini, this piece brings an element of natural elegance into any space.
Athens-based ceramicist Anna Karountzou blends raw elegance with traditional craftsmanship. With a background in the conservation of artworks and antiquities, Anna brings an understanding of materials to moulding and handling clay. With absolute discipline and focus on detail, she creates her own glazes favouring the tactile and functional aspects of the craft. Her one-of-a-kind, hand-thrown pieces draw inspiration from places she feels connected to, and pay homage to the natural world with a contemporary feel.
Inspired by nature, Anna is obsessed with the marks of time, evidently present in the essence of corrosion that her ceramics exude, seeking the nostalgia of the old. Formed by traditional hand-building techniques such as the coiling method, her works are each made by hand, and constitute entirely bespoke pieces where no one is the same. All pots have been fired at a high temperature to ensure their durability.
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.
