About Block VIII, Terracotta is a one-off sculpture by French contemporary artist Delphine Brabant from the series "Architecture". 23 cm × 20 cm × 16 cm. In this series, the artist designs geometric shapes bringing together different volumes and right angles, alternating between vertical and horizontal shapes, the fullness and the emptiness. The assembly of these elements creates new volumes which sometimes bring to mind modern architecture projects. Fascinated with the concept of construction, Delphine Brabant composes her abstract sculptures like an architect, assembling and fitting together a multitude of simple forms. Finding inspiration in the verticality, horizontality and the interplay between solid and space, the artist tends to favor clean geometric shapes, developing her art around a notion of balance.

Fragments d'Arquitectura is a project made from the analysis on Architectures located on the island of Formentera that shows a relationship between the spaces they house and the building in general, difficult to appreciate if not for the use of the section as an instrument of investigation.
Exploring space in design is a whole sub-category in itself, especially in architecture. Of course, you have open spaces, connecting spaces, and even negative spaces, all these small intricacies make or break the cohesiveness of a work. I was drawn to the work of Australian artist Jane McKenzie for this reason who looks to explore

Het is een thema dat je wel al eens tegen komt: de architectuur als onderwerp. Arthur Meijer is een Nederlands keramist die zich er volledig op toelegt en vooral de beschrijving ervan op de site van Galerie Het Filiaal trof me. “Dwalen door verlaten straatjes in stille zuidelijke dorpen of stadswijken. De blauwe lucht trilt van de hitte, er is nog maar weinig volk op straat. Uit de huizen komen geuren en flarden van gesprekken in een vreemde taal, geluiden van servies en radio of TV. Buiten is het stil maar voelt niet eenzaam. Wie herinnert zich niet dit prettige zomerse gevoel? Wie koestert daar geen fijne herinneringen aan? Reizen naar verre streken en daardoor soms ook reizen in de tijd.” Ik vond de tekst terug op op de website van de man. Dwalen door zijn werken, is inderdaad een beetje reizen. Nauwgezet bestudeert hij de verschillende stijlen. Hij legt zich toe op de typische kenmerken en invloeden die spelen in een bepaalde bouwstijl en puurt ze uit tot mooie keramische bouwsels die uitnodigen tot dromen. Laat je even gaan... Toscaans. Umbrië. Castilliaans. .... Egyptisch... Op de site vind je er nog een heleboel, goedkoop reizen is het. De man laat je genieten van versteende geschiedenis, het architecturaal kunnen van de mens. De werken zijn gemaakt met een klei met behoorlijk wat grove chamotte voor de stevigheid en de zachte tinten van het klei-oppervlak worden ongeglazuurd gelaten, wat een warm, natuurlijk beeld bewerkstelligt. Hele grote werken worden in delen opgebouwd en gebakken. Deze man heeft duidelijk een baksteen in de maag, zij het een multiculturele. En als je het allemaal eens dichterbij wil bekijken, kan je vanaf zondag terecht bij Galerie Picoux in Antwerpen.

CLICK photo = LARGE format + slide show.. (Exhibition photos by A.Linnemann) CERAMIC CONCRETION Mette Marie Ørsted DK Exhibition October 31 - November 30, 2013 Abstract visions concreted in a tangible material.. Mette-Marie Ørsted works with geometry, card houses, cultural cities in her Ceramic Concretions, which are as cut out with scissors, out and assembled, clearly grown out from the 2D flat to 3D form. She explores the architectural space interacting with the ceramic spacious, the raw clay versus the glazed surface, the poetic narrative towards pure geometric form. She refers to cultural experience, urban communities and ways of living - abstracts concreted in a tangible material. METTE MARIE ØRSTED by William Gelius Mette Marie Ørsted's exceptional sensitivity to clay is known in her sensuous ceramic bowls, pitchers, vases and much more. Holding her rustic dishes in the hands almost feels like a warm handshake, but it does not imply the absence of formal consideration. And on rare occasions, she engages in pure form experiments, as is the case for this exhibition. The project has been a long time coming. In 2004, she created three small, brittle vase - assemblies that now are exhibited for the first time: One in 6 parts of Bedouin tent fabric - thin bone china with fibre material, and one in 7 parts of high-fired red clay on the outer surface appearing as dusty walls, while the inside has tin-glazed walls. Placed with space between the parts, as it is intended, a labyrinth of mazes of narrow alleys and empty streets occurs, that gives the whole piece a character like a desert-city. In 2010, for the exhibition 'The world on a plate' at Gammelgaard Culture Centre in Herlev, she created dishes with tin-glazed card houses resting on a plate. It is of these fantasy cities and imaginary houses that this exhibition of new artworks originates from. As a novelty, it is a modernist, neo-plasticism or constructivism aesthetic that now exists. With their right angles they remind us of utopian architectural models, but when it comes to it, they are not models, nor houses. They are spatial structures that only occasionally meet a tight modernist requirement for vertical and horizontal. Equally often they challenge the logic, structure, balance and harmony by standing upside-down, hanging or sitting at an angle. The pieces for the exhibition are an exciting formation study, the results of which may well prove to be included in the foundation of Mette Marie's future work - amongst other things, the vases, jugs and dishes. Photos by Ole Akhøj DK: Mette Marie Ørsted: "In the works I have examined the contrast between seemingly random and highly controlled structures. This happened both on an artistic level and in the practical work with the material. The work is to be shown as if it had partially constructed itself in a dynamic field between self-organized organic and geometric design. They are inspired by my own sketch drawings that in their line is similar to the city and landscape maps. The lines rise from the flat to the space and become three-dimensional models. Thereby they also reference to mud-architecture in the Arab countries. In recent years, I have concentrated on the forming and construction techniques in high-fired red clay and earthenware, shown at the exhibition 'The World on a plate'. This project builds on these techniques. I examine the clay structural tensions: - Can it in the work-flow be compressed or deployed depending on particular techniques and the use of in-blending materials that I have found?
