Plate n. 8 by fango ceramics
Fango Ceramics is the practice of Jacopo, a ceramic artist whose work is rooted in experimentation and a direct relationship with natural materials. He personally collects and tests clays, selecting them for their strength, workability, and unique visual qualities.
Each piece is wheel-thrown and shaped through an intuitive process, where every gesture leaves a lasting trace. Glazed with custom mixtures and fired at high temperatures in wood, gas, or soda kilns, the works develop rich, unrepeatable surfaces.
The selection of ceramics sold at TABLEAU comprehends pieces fired in New Zealand, Portugal, Switzerland and Italy. This choice is both related to the materials’ collecting process, and also to the firing process: wood powered and gas powered kilns differ from one another, affecting how the final result will look like and feel like, making each piece irreplicable.
