Blow-up table
A material exploration used self-made tools and embraced intuition and playfulness in the creative process to push the limits of ceramics. Working with challenging materials like ceramics comes with many rules, instructions and warnings. Strictly avoiding air bubbles in the clay being one of them. Willem Zwiers created a workplace where these conventional rules are replaced by intuition and playful experimentation. Using simple and self-made tools, he looked for unique production methods, discovering a child-like approach to creative thinking in the process. Blowing air into the clay, tearing it, and feeding it through modified machines lets the material’s unique qualities surface in fresh and unique ways. ‘Willem’s Ceramics Atelier’ questions the prevailing landscape of mass production. By crafting analogue machines and rejecting external information and guides, fascinating objects emerge using the simplest of means.
