Opposites in harmony

Eva Koj's unique vessels and ceramic objects, which she creates using the salt-firing process and celadon glazes, are somewhere between applied art and sculpture. Porcelain lamps and stoneware tableware from the gas kiln round off her repertoire.
Round, harmonious shapes are excitingly complemented by cracks, fractures and asymmetries - this creates depth and invites you to take a closer look! So take a closer look!
