Drapery collection is a series of vases inspired by the delicate, momentary nature of fabrics. Our intention was to imitate the natural beauty of fabric and apply its characteristics to another material (in this case ceramics).
The main challenge in the project was being on the edge of man's ability to shape an object, as the resin-soaked fabric behaves in a particular way and cannot be shaped exactly as you would want to while maintaining a natural look. You could say it almost has a mind of its own. We could only create the outline of the product and let the model dry in the shape most natural to it. Made in Collaboration with Arttu Kuisma.
