The article discusses Jessica Rust's Limn collection, inspired by Nerikomi pottery, showcasing handcrafted lighting, tables, and vases. Over five years of practice, Rust has developed her skill in layering colored clay to create stunning patterns. The collection features various forms such as the Limn Vase and triangle lamps, celebrating the visual richness and uniqueness of each piece, while also addressing the fragility of the technique. The attention to color, craftsmanship, and artistic exploration makes the Limn collection a noteworthy contribution to high art and design.
"I started playing with triangles and found myself completely obsessed with pushing this basic shape into new territory," shares the artist. "When I combined that with my take on Nerikomi, something unexpected and exciting emerged."
These vases, no two alike and taking weeks to complete, celebrate the organic nature of humane creation.
At such a large scale, these works are as much an object of beauty as well as the artist's mastery of the material.
Brilliant hues create high contrast, a delight for the eye and a celebration of the time and effort that goes into Nerikomi work.
