Vaar Wel

Artist list

Rian de Jong

Rian de Jong has recently worked at the European Ceramic Work Centre in Den Bosch for three months.
She has already been using ceramic in her work, but now she has the possibility to explore this material and its specific techniques at a much deeper level.
The new collection includes brooches in which ceramic is combined with galvanically shaped metal, rings with lavish lustre and ceramic lines that form drawings on the wall. For years Rian has been inspired by the Mediterranean coastline.
Now on the eve of an adventurous trip to Greenland and America this work represents both a farewell (Vaar Wel) and a promise at the same time.
