About Me
- Name: Petrus Spronk
- Location: Daylesford, Victoria, Australia
I am a ceramicist and sculptor My ceramic work, is presently concerned with the magic of the firing process. The throwing of the bowls is the same, though more refined The burnishing of the bowls is the same, though more refined The preparation for firing is as it has always been, but more finely skilled. With this work it is the firing process in the wood-fired kiln where the emphasis lies. The enriching of a surface imbued with flame and smoke markings Extracting from the kiln its visual magic. Enhancing the work with Kiln mysteries Painting the surface of the bowl with a brush loaded with fire and smoke, creating landscape images in its primal form Returning to the source Something raw with something refined And there lies the necessary tension in the work The tension which gets the attention Petrus Spronk October 2008
