MESOPOTAMIA

Translated from the ancient greek term mesopotamia, 'between two rivers' the sculptural vessels by amsterdam-based designer siba sahabi makes the connection between this ancient land - located between the rivers - with its pottery innovations and western ceramics culture which developed through these new technologies. a circular, ribbed finish is one of the distinguishing characteristics of minyan ware which reflects its production process on a potter’s turntable.although the turntable no longer plays a significant role in the production of modern large-scale pottery today, the appearance of 
hand-turned ceramics is often imitated by producing circular shapes with fine ridges.

NEW EYES

I haven't seen Blur this way before. I think I like it more.

WAVES

For Wolfgang Bloch, waves - literal breakers and the crashing washes of colour - are everywhere. A stunning, almost McCahon-esque abstraction of the most everywhere landscape phenomenon ensues. In the way they balance on the shift between sea and sky, they remind me of Debra Bloomfield's Oceanscapes. Beautiful.

WE DISAPPEARED

Am Meer/Sea scapes.

I feel a strange desire to turn these images upside down, as if I was lying on the beach with looking up at the sky, then tilting my head back so far as to see the deep blue proposal of the horizon, and further round, the sea stretching out beyond.
To disappear myself into the scape.

Beautiful work by Thomas Wrede.
