Hanna Kooistra - Pair of prints - coffee pot
These set of prints are a reinterpretation of a coffee pot from the Rijksmuseum NL. The view of this pre-industrial object transforms by questioning it from the context of the ornament. The or- nament is often a forgotten language while it has a long history that goes far beyond than just a de- corative layer. It is for me a form of communication, a guide in functionality, a manner of production and an indication of the origin. Due to the limitation of the painting technique, the ornament reveals itself. An iconic interpretation has arisen. digitalprint on cotton. Material: Cotton, aluminium tube, cotton rope 4m color: blue purple edition of 100
