Sunday Evening Art Gallery — Andriy and Olesya Voznicki

Ukrainian artists Andriy and Olesya Voznicki create voluminous ceramic vessels and sculptures.Forced to recently flee their home in Ukraine and relocate to the Netherlands, the Voznickis began to create ceramic pieces using locally-sourced materials. Based in Amsterdam, the duo draw inspiration from natural phenomena like the changing seasons, patinas and aging, and elements like fire or earth.Their focus is heavily on experiments combining ceramics with wood and coal.The pieces mirror the shapes and textures of boulders or lava rock, suggesting both beauty and resiliency and influenced by a concept called bionic design, which mimics characteristics and adaptations in nature.The hallmark of these creations lies in their texture, roughness, cracks, and irregularities, embodying a deep appreciation for the natural process of expression.The anomalies that emerge during creation are welcomed, imbuing the work with a unique charm, untamed beauty, and singular character. Rather than increasing production volumes, we aim to make each product as individual as possible.More of Andriy and Olesya Voznicki’s wonderfully unique sculptures can be found at https://naturaceramica.com/ and Homo Faber.
