Volcanoes Are Grand And Majestic – That’s My Inspiration For The New Ceramic Collection.

ADVERTISEMENT

What was I thinking this morning? That we are all in a hurry. Our lives are accelerating more and more. If we can already transfer or automate some activities, we immediately think of ten more tasks to do.

This is what I thought about this morning, when I gave the courier my parcel with ceramic vases for a beautiful interior photo shoot. There is little room in our lives for contemplation and self-consciousness in the here and now. Nature is our lifeline. Only when we are alone with it can we find ourselves. Nature is perfect. It is our and my source of inspiration.

In my creative work, images of nature are among the most important. Therefore, I have a unique opportunity to decorate our microcosm with my works: flats, houses, offices.

All my life, as long as I can remember, I have been painting. Since childhood, I wanted to put on paper the bright rays of the sun, the crystal clarity of morning, the blinding whiteness of snow and the majesty of mountain peaks at dawn. I always felt that I could reproduce my feelings and impressions with a brush and paints. A few years ago, ceramics became another way of connecting the real world with the world of images. As an interior designer, I am particularly sensitive to how works of art and unique décor can shape a beautiful interior around oneself. So at a certain point, ceramics became a way for me to fill the gap in author’s decor and at the same time come up with different images for my ceramic decor series to decorate spaces.

The Volcano collection is expressive in form, the vases. I can categorise them as sculptural ceramics. The image is easy for anyone to read. Smooth, flowing lines, like lava flowing down a slope. The black colour of the clay is not black at all, but complex, like frozen lava, like ash. The glaze on the surface only slightly changes the natural surface of the fired chamotte. And gold could not be avoided. It accentuates the plasticity of the piece.

    Creative aptitudes motivate me to design new, beautiful, and unique things. I give a part of my soul to each project. Therefore, they are relative and meaningful to me. So, I always try to create original designs, put a special meaning, and reflect the character of each of my works.My projects are rooted in the contradiction of mystery, beauty, and philosophy of nature and the human soul. That's where I get my inspiration. I create modern interiors and bring creative decorations into them. The design of my ceramic items has been inspired by unusual shapes, natural motifs, the diversity of nature. Also, elements of folklore and Russian style affect the style of the interior elements. Each work concludes with a special meaning. My ceramic things have comprised a variety of ideas, which help me translate creative images into a form.

    Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda. As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience. Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).
