ruth gurvich: mat


porcelaine prototypes

MAT: it’s a white porcelain table set. at the beginning there is a piece of paper… drawing,
cutting folding, sticking together pieces of paper are the formal bases of the table set, the
base of the object. each piece: plate, bowl, tea pot, salad dish takes the print of the model
and shows his building principle. with its whiteness, fineness and lightness porcelain

reflexes the essence of paper and his human fragility. outside the porcelain biscuit answers
the lustreless of paper and inside is enamelled to make practical for use. because of their
morphology and the way they catch the light the pieces of porcelain placed at the table
reminds a still life representation, an art installation. MAT gives the possibility of a creative
and diversity way in setting the table.
