**ZSOLT JOZSEF SIMON**

Ceramic sculpture
Individually made

Flying Garden is created from porcelain and embodies movement in its creation based on a further development on a slip casting technique. The liquid clay is poured into a plaster mould where the slips allow the water to draw out, leaving the solid clay inside. The excess slip is usually removed from the mold. However, the artist intentionally lets it escape provoking an interesting effect and creating a new forming method. Through this sculptural ceramic, the artist not only aims to show the lightness and the poetic aspect of the material, but also push the boundaries of the process. This techniques allows him to create fascinating effects between the inside and the outside of the objects.
