Eusebio Sanchez: Selected works, 2019-2021

I celebrate the prehistoric method of hand-building coiling. It is fascinating that this process is rooted in the history of craft and ceramics so profoundly and still plays a crucial role in contemporary making.

Japan’s Neolithic pots made in the Jomon period were very sophisticated and complex. In my practice, I achieve that sophistication, setting myself different exercises to explore form and how far I can stretch the process. Jomon literally means ‘cord marked’ and like in the Jomon culture, I choose to expose the coil revealing the process often hidden in most ceramic works.

I use the coil as a drawing method, by analogy to how draughtsmen use a pencil. I like to think that I am ‘taking a coil for a walk,’ an expression I borrow from Paul Klee’s expression: ‘drawing is taking a line for a walk.’ When making a piece of work, I know where I want to start and have an abstract idea of how I may want it to look. Frequently the job takes me on a material and narrative journey, and as I progress, I make decisions to shape the final form differently from the one I had in mind. I let the form be, and serendipity happens in the search for a new structural complexity.

In a world that is becoming digitalized, I have created a relationship with clay where my hands act like an analog 3D printer. As a result, my sculptures echo the aesthetic of this technology.
