Entre Medio
Award: Open to ArtEntreMedio is the embodiment of an ongoing exploration which seeks to fuse ceramic materials of different composition: ceramics and glass. Two separate elements and technologies conceptually and materially unite to highlight the intrinsic quality of both materials and their relation- ship to each other.
Thermal shock constitutes the primary obstacle in combining ceramic and glass. This barrier is overcome via the empirical verification of errors in each edition, with the aim of reducing fractures to a mini mum.
But from these ‘errors’ another beauty and form emerged: the idea of creating a series of objects illustrating the evolution and variations of precisely what happens ‘in between’ the process from ideation to final piece. This project has been developed closely with ceramic and blown glass artisans from Argentina at the factory Cristaleria San Carlos.
