Bio:
In the late 1970s, many European studio ceramicists continued to refine experimental techniques developed in earlier decades, creating more controlled yet still expressive surface effects. Emphasis was often placed on the movement of glaze during firing and the interaction between colour, form, and vertical structure. Vases from this period frequently function as independent sculptural works rather than traditional utilitarian objects.
