Arnoldsche Weekend Art Gallery # 15. Carina Shoshtary Jewellery and Pálma Babos Ceramics

Artist list

Pálma Babos, Carina Shoshtary

The work of Carina Shoshtary invites lively engagement on the topics of body and jewelry while shifting between the realms of art, fashion, and design. Whereas for her earlier series What’s Left of Krypton and Karma Chroma she designed extraordinary jewelry made from worn-away graffiti, in her new series, Hunter, she develops magical structures for the
head, face, neck, and ear from PLA, a biodegradable plastic.

The Hungarian artist Pálma Babos constructs bold architectural sculptures in porcelain. She manipulates the inner balance of these “towers” in such a way that causes them to collapse in premeditated places as the porcelain shrinks during firing. These impressive objects are, on the one hand, reminiscent of human hubris, the arrogant quest for perfection, and, on the other, of the fragility of our terrestrial existence.
