Swinging ceramics 

Vibratory, full of movement and energy, varied in form and expression and without doubt always attributable to their creator are the vessels and objects of Frank Schillo. Likewise his ceramics for everyday use. All this is based on an orderly design principle with a clear canon of forms based on construction and statics. Monochrome surfaces, predominantly in matt white, black or grey, gently subordinate themselves to the form.
