DESCRIPTION

Complex pieces combining traditional processes and contemporary form that test the limitations of fired clay. - Matthew Chambers Website

STATEMENT

The ceramic works of Matthew Chambers are born from a love of geometric and constructivist art, architecture, and design.

Each piece is a constructed abstract exploration of shape and form combining traditional processes and contemporary form, designed to create a visual and tactile beauty and intrigue.

Minimalist yet complex objects built from layering many circular sections within a single form. - Matthew Chambers Website

As you know from reading my post about circles, I LOVE circles... so these sculptures are right up my alley!! :-)

They're so beautiful and intriguing. I just want to hold one in my hand and spin all the layers around....

I'm going to add these to my "Circles" folder :-)

Thanks!!

Definitely a complex piece that would be a great conversation piece on a decorative bookshelf! Love it.

Very beautiful! He is quite talented. The layers are so delicate and fragile looking but altogether it is strong and solid, I like these a lot :)

Thanks for the positive comment about the tiling in my old condo's kitchen!

These sculptures are really lovely. Like Maria said, real conversation pieces... I find myself wondering how the artist created these inter-related balls!

Great eye candy Ivan! Fired clay has such a delicate texture, and the form.....I am thinking golden section.
