Platinum Tray Vase Handmade by Matthias Kaiser, 2019 Measures: Height 28 cm / 11,02 in This conceptual vase consists of a tray with low rim and a central hollow stem. It was fired with the aid of an elaborate support structure to prevent warping and allow the stem to hang vertically during the firing process. Made from unrefined iron rich stoneware clay from the Czech republic, its grainy surface counterbalances the glossy platinum finish. It has been fired three times. The entire, rather large, surface of the piece is coated with a platinum overglaze containing actual platinum. In use, the hollow stem can be filled with water and a flower or twig can be displayed dramatically against the tarnished mirror-like tray. Matthias Kaiser focus on the inherent qualities of the material and the succession of steps that constitute the process of creation. Trying to reveal, not hide, what is there and has been done. And to give respite from the world of contrived concepts and passing excitement. He has always had an affinity to mystery and obsession. The alchemical transformation of earth into stone and glass is full of uncertainties and a neverending source of amazement. By subtracting Industrial processes as far as possible from the refinement of the raw materials and totally from manufacture, the finished pieces retain a heterogenous appearance. They are a sum of parts, with infinite possible combinations of shape and surface, texture and color, weight and size. His pots contain more than a functional and decorative aspect, their poetry lies in the balance of intent and accident as well as in the interplay of physical attributes.
