Ceramic

Transformation between drawing and sculpture: organic lines become matter, and textures shift from paper to glazed ceramic bodies.

The ceramic works continue Florian Mehnert's drawing-based practice in three-dimensional form. Lines, densities and eruptive structures leave the sheet and become objects: fragile and intense, raw and polished at the same time.

The works move between drawing, sculpture and material experiment. They hold the immediacy of a sketch while becoming physical presences with their own surface, mass and spatial tension.

Ceramic Drawing

The glazed ceramic concentrates the drawing-based surface into a compact sculptural body. Incisions, ridges and ruptures remain visible as traces of movement, while the colour gives the object an intense physical presence.

Drawing as body

The ceramics are not a separate decorative line. They extend the logic of drawing into volume: gesture becomes object, mark becomes surface, and graphic intensity becomes sculptural presence.
