| Signe Schjøth (1974) was trained at the Ceramic School
of Bornholm 1999 – 2002.
Since graduating, she has been selected for several international
exhibitions. At PULS Signe Schjøth is having her first
solo exhibition.
She says about her work: “I work process-oriented with
the examination of form, which in its presence appears in
organic shapes and in rhythmic lines in motion. The starting
point was the idea of a flower as a radiant energy and elegance
both remarkable
and luxuriant, a testament to the existence of everyday miracles.
The creation of an aesthetic, sensuous, material object has
always been the essence of my work, but the objects have since
2002 become more abstract.
At the moment I am asking myself: Is it possible by combining
or colliding
senses to reach a more complex form? That is my ambition.
All my works are hand-built. To achieve a sense of elegance
and fragility
the shapes are made thin in comparison to their size.
Furthermore I have put a lot of effort into achieving a harmonic
surface and a defined access of lines to intensify the character
of each object.
The surfaces maintain a texture which reflects the depth and
sensuous presence
of forms found in nature. Together these accentuate the overall
tactile
quality of the works.”
