Excellent commissioned work (unique piece), title "The Ocean of Milk", porcelain, size 19.2 x 15 x 5 cm, instead of a signature there is a well-designed certificate. The title is an allusion to Indian mythology (Vishnu/Kurma/world mountain Meru, Hindu creation myth of the "churning of the ocean of milk"). The artist was born in Poland, studied at the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences (where she also lives) and is represented in many exhibitions as well as a number of well-known institutions and private collections in Europe. Her studio resembles a cabinet of curiosities (or art chamber). The versatile patron, art collector, trend scout and curator Rik Reinking (see also woodsartinstitute.com) writes in the foreword to her beautiful catalogue "Equilibirium" under the heading "The Magic of Things" (greatly abbreviated): "Cabinets of curiosities emerged during the late Renaissance and Baroque periods and were an important step in the development of the modern museum... The works bring this tradition back to life..." . In addition, the journalist Jan Zier has written remarkable articles about her work. I quickly sensed that she would skillfully implement my intention.
