"My new portofilo"
| |
Hello, it's me - Saida Fagala with my new works. I call these series "Shells and corals". As always pocelain, my favorite. I was excited to work with colored porcelain, using the body stains. I prefer to work with porcelain because I love the translucency and brilliance . Some works have been painted before firing, then glazed and fired in an electric kiln. I used some lusters to emphasize the shape and color. I also made my own stamps to decorate the works, which all have been made by a hand build technique. It was pretty hard to keep this kind of free shape, so I used some support and very soft clay. I look for personality in each vessel, my work combines elements of grace and beauty, free shape and bright color. In my portfolio you'll see some works made from terra-cotta clay, I love this clay because of the color and the plasticity, and I like to use it to show the beauty of terracotta .It's also inspired me to create some shapes using the old traditions, keeping the primitve look.My terracotta vases are very light in weight, I used a minimum clay and color, paying more attention to the shape. Welcome to my world))
