Zsolt József Simon
'Five-Lobed'
This vessel was created using 150 pieces of plaster, imagined with complex shades of creative intention while endeavouring towards harmony. The artist contemplates whether historical discord stemming from human miscommunication might now be a thing of the past. This faint promise of metamorphosis is infused into the vessel’s blooming rim, auguring future life on an imminent horizon.

"[The piece] has a very rough outside and a very smooth inside, and that makes a very interesting texture."
