Museum acquisition and exhibition ✨
Lotte Westphael’s ceramic work, Purple Textile Syncope, has joined the permanent collection of Clay Museum of Ceramic Art Denmark, and is currently part of their exhibition, « What’s New - Recent Acquisitions » through April 11, 2027.
The inspiration behind the work expressed by the artist:
« My many walks at dusk have shown me these deep purple hues. It’s about transitions, the transformation from day to night. To let the eye search from the light and sink into the interior of this cylindrical vessel.
To let the mind rest in the deep purple color. Purple Textile Syncope is an example of going to the absolute limit with the porcelain. I have never worked this thin in a large piece like this. The firing has transformed the piece into a narrative of vivid fragility and of, not perfection, but being at the edge of the possible. »
