aard stands for earth but also for character.
In this project, i made ceramic objects.
These objects where vessels for value.
It was inspired by the book -The Gift from Lewis hyde.
How can we grant value to something that is made by hands and dirt?
How can we appreciate the relationship that is symbolized by the object, when contemporary society is cutting trough all bonds to profit from.
Can we travel trough discomfort and feel the tension that is created by the question
– what is it worth to you, when you look me in my eyes and know the labour that I did.
