Clark Sorensen has utilized his BFA in Sculpture from the University of Utah to craft marvelous sculptures of a unique nature.
After years of working in costume design, illustration, and computer animation, Sorensen could not resist the “call of nature.”
In 2002, Sorensen realized the potential of the porcelain pissoir and turned the mundane task of using the men’s room into a luxuriously satisfying experience by crafting whimsical urinal and sink sculptures for the powder room.
His work is a fusion of function and beauty, humor and grace, as his designs are unique, one-of-a-kind creations.
And though they look like shiny ceramic sculptures that belong in galleries, they are totally functional for private or commercial use and many men around the world can confirm.
“My pieces echo the classic conflicts between masculine and feminine, good and evil, soiled and chaste,” Sorensen shares.
“My work reflects my interest in combining beauty with function and exploiting the discord between opposing elements in life and in art. The contradiction of taking an unsightly urinal and transforming it into a graceful object like a flower or shell is a potent combination.”
