Diana Butucariu: Mossy, 2021-2022
Mossy is a decorative ceramic structure that adds a warm and living element to any space both through the shapes and the shadows that it creates. I use the structure as itself or in combination with other pieces.
The fundamental elements of Mossy are semi-circles which are combined to form a mesh outline. An inspiration for these shapes was the structure of moss and lichens growing on Norrbottnian mires. The structure allows me a fast working process that can be created at any scale. I like to use vivid colors to encourage the playfulness of the piece.
