    Marika Vansant

    My Twister are a harmony of contrasts.

    "Sleek, sober shapes turn into rhythmic ribbons that break free from control."

    Marika Vansant received a "Flemish Culture Prize 2021" from Jambon. Her work 'Twisting into Nature' was most appreciated by the visitors.

    The clay takes on a simple shape on the turntable.

    When the clay is leather-hard, the shape is turned and cut spirally.

    The cutting lines are carefully separated and supported by small pieces of clay.

    After the roughen some of these pieces are removed.

    This causes a falling movement during the high bucket. When the last supports are removed, the shape comes into its own.

    Only a few works remain after a critical selection.

    “With the help of cuts, a movement has been created within a recognizable shape. This creates a balance between chance and control ”.

    Always looking for balance.
