99 Feelings...

Artist Mitsy Sleurs set out to create a unique self portrait; illustrating 99 different feelings.  Sensitively modeled out of ceramics, Mitsy probes into what might be some of the hardest human feelings to describe,  and depicts them very successfully.

Maxime Ansiau

I love how some contemporary ceramicists use the kitsch element of traditional plate ware to create irony in their works.  Maxime Ansiau is a great example of this.  His work crosses architecture with ceramics in a way that takes an unexpected turn - into the kitsch - with pleasant results.

What do you think of this method?
