Lush splendour

Sublime colorfulness, splendid shine: Martin Mindermann's unique Rakuge vessels radiate from themselves, they almost physically confront the viewer. The finest hairline cracks and deeper traces provide the framework for the pictorial compositions. The surfaces of his vessels can be read like pictures or maps. Gold- and copper-dotted, deep oceans and floating islands emerge between the raku-colored craquelé of the outer skin.
