Mr. F & I were chatting the other day about the long list of things we’d both like to try our hands at– high on my list?  Pottery and/or ceramics.  It’s always been one of my favorite mediums and I would love to see what I could do with it.  This week I came across the work of  German artist Elke Sada and was so inspired by her form and process!

Sada’s process is a bit of a work in reverse, as she paints on plasterboard, then pouring clay onto the painted play.  The pliable clay is then cut and shaped into form.  You can read more about her process here.  The resulting forms have a wonderful whimsy about them with their shifting compositions and tilted shapes.  I mean, when you’re creating pieces like this, how could it not be fun?

More of Elke Sada‘s ceramics can be seen on her website.
