Interrupted Profiles Revisited Through Robotics
My contribution: My objects’ meandering surfaces and decorations merge into a unified, interdependent and dynamic whole. It's reminiscent of the fractures at the Church of Our Saviour and the ceiling in The Hermitage Hunting Lodge’s dining room. Surfaces and lines continuously move around, yet you find yourself stopping to immerse in a detail, which then leads the attention to yet another detail. In this way, the gaze oscillates between the whole and the part. My objects are inspired by the concept of interrupted profiles, so-called ‘forkrøpninger’ in Danish. Yet, they are not merely interrupted profiles; they appear alive independently, twisting and moving detached from their architectural origins. Adorned with intersecting lines or stars, the shapes and decorations harmonize like the sound of distinct musical instruments complementing one another. Materiality varies across these objects. Some are raw and unglazed, shaped in red-fired clay that evokes medieval Danish monk bricks, grounding the forms in tradition while channeling Baroque elegance. Others are glazed in decadent, pearlescent hues that echo the Baroque’s opulent, mirrored surfaces, evoking ethereal and dreamlike associations. My objects merge traditional craftsmanship with digital technology. Using robotic wire-cutting, hand movements are transformed into physical forms. Kinect technology captures the 3D movements of my hands, recording their speed and direction. Slower gestures result in dense patterns, while faster ones create more open designs. A robotic arm, equipped with a cutting wire and a stamp, carves and stamps the clay, adding geometric precision. This process blends human touch with digital accuracy, harmonizing motion, form, and ornamentation like tuning and playing an instrument. In the project, I explore the interplay between embodied artistic expression and the transformative potential of digital technology. By utilizing robotics, I reimagine the interplay between hand, material, and ornamentation in traditional ceramics. This ...
