London-based artist Claire Partington creates figurative ceramic vessels steeped in power dynamics and status. Her works often feature removable head stoppers of humans and animals, which bring a range and versatility to each glazed character. Her inspiration for the elegant figures comes mostly from European applied art and design styles from the 17th-century onward, yet the pieces blend elements from various centuries and genres. Partington shares with Colossal that she has a “magpie” approach to collecting visual elements from her everyday experience, “equally taking inspiration from a visit to a museum or a walk along my local high street.” To create the works she first coil-builds the vessel, then shapes the object before adding press molded surface decorations and computer-generated enamel decoration over the glaze.

جام، تپه سیلک، کاشان، هزاره سوم یا چهارم پیش از میلاد، بلندا: ۲۰.۱ ، قطر: ۱۱.۵ سانتی متر، محل نگهداری موزه ملی آثار باستانی هلند Beaker Unknown-4000/-3000 Title: Beaker Creator: Unknown Date Created: -4000/-3000 Location: Tape Sialk, Iran Physical Dimensions: h20.1 cm Datering: 4000-3000 BC Afmetingen: h. 20,1 cm, D 11,5 cm Type: beaker Medium: earthenware This beaker is made of cream-coloured pottery. The brownish-purple painting is characteristic of work produced in Persia in the 4th millennium BC. Two sides display a more or less identical scene within a framework of line and lozenge motifs: the stylised image of a deer stands freely in the allotted space. The creature sports a colossal pair of antlers, the horns of which branch out in near-expressionist style. A bird has alighted on the deer’s backside. A number of near-identical beakers have been found. The unusual feature of this one is the image of the little bird standing on the deer’s back, a scene that is almost without parallel. From the collection of Rijksmuseum van Oudheden Netherlands

Eric Roinestad's ceramics employ an iconographic language to explore the deeply personal. With a background in graphic design, he wields an instinct for pictorial dialect, infusing his work with both universality and intimacy. His evolution harmonizes diverse aesthetics into a uniquely original approach. Taking influences from Bauhaus pioneer Oskar Schlemmer and the southern California landscape, Roinestad's artistic journey embodies his innovative vision.
