Booming Vases by Analogia Project & Alessio Sarri

Mint is delighted to have had the opportunity to showcase the Booming Vases series, a work by Analogia Project & Alessio Sarri of Italy.

The project draws inspiration from the two opposing essential elements that make our existence: air and matter, power and fragility. The making process of the objects followed an experimental methodology: a controlled detonation shapes the pure geometrical white ceramic, followed by drying and cooking in traditional way.

The project relates to the notion of ‘wrong ceramic’, coined by Italian Designer Ettore Sottsass, where unconventional and experimental materials and processes are introduced in order to manipulate the traditional or ‘ordinary’ way of making and crafting ceramics.

The vases were shown for the first time in the UK at Mint, for LDF 2014.

We prepared this post to show once more the genius and beauty of these works.
