Ask anything

Eric asked

Hoe hebben andere mensen de relatie met irina beschreven?
Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen answered

Hallo Eric, Goed dat je hiernaar vraagt, we moeten het resultaat inderdaad naar buiten brengen maar zoeken op dit moment nog naar een goede manier om dat te doen. De reacties tot nu toe zijn nogal divers, maar algemeen gesproken kan je ze in drie 'kampen' indelen. Er zijn mensen die de combinatie ronduit absurd vinden, mensen die de tegenstelling tussen Maya en Irina wel als interessant ervaren én mensen die meegaan in het verhaal en de tegenstelling meteen positief interpreteren als het ideale recept voor een liefdevol huwelijk. We komen er op de website nog op terug. Hartelijke groet, Els
Wyko ter Haar asked

How was this made?
Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen answered

Hi Wyko, the object is constructed with rolled strips of clay on top of each other – instead of wheel thrown. After initial firing the basic shape was covered with engobe (soft slip) that then was jagged with various objects, among them maybe even a credit card and sprinkled with iron shavings. After that the object was fired again, which also caused the oxidation of the iron. Best, Lisa
