Damascus Revival, 2024 WIP
Mediums:
3D Ceramics
Project Description:
Damascus Revival is an archive of 3D models that are inspired by the traditional forms and functions of Damascene craft. This series of 3D ceramics capture the legacy of the historical craftsmanship in Damascene ceramics from the 12th-16th century, propelling this ancient art form into a contemporary identity. By researching the historical, artistic and technical influences of Damascus ceramics, this archive explores the distinctiveness of Damascus ceramics and tells their story by creating imagined replicas that carve a new identity. This Research & Creation project is generously funded by the Canadian Council for the Arts. This project will be completed by July 1st, 2024.
