David Carlsson’s profile on Ceramics Now Magazine – View his works
“In my artistic work I am often interested in contrasts and combinations. It could be things like dream and reality, aim and result ore repetition and breaks. I frequently return to the everyday as a subject were I am fascinated by routines as well as the wish to get away from them.
I want to tell stories through clay and ceramic references and I´m aiming for an equivocal state in my works where I like to both embrace and criticize, answer and wonder in the same object.
As a ceramic artist, I mostly work with sculptures/objects where I want to combine visualized thoughts and ideas with the ceramic material and references i use. My works are often parts of longer thinking-paths and there are connections between different projects even if they don’t need a relation to each other.” David Carlsson
Born 1977, David Carlsson graduated from HDK, School of Design and Crafts, Göteborg.
