'Carafe < Funnel'

Atelier Polyhedre / Atelier Polyhedre

£280

French ceramicists Baptiste Ymonet and Vincent Jousseaume of Atelier Polyhedre like to imbue their vessels with personalities, which – in the case of their growing Stomachs series – are a hungry bunch. The vases and carafes appear to have swallowed other objects, which stretch their curves and angular outlines, evoking the elasticity of the intestinal wall. This 'Carafe < Funnel' looks like it has gulped down a vase, which distorts the usual symmetry of ceramic turning to pleasingly irreverent effect.
