Something happened in Kira Fr\u00f6se\u2019s EKWC studio, but what? Things started melting, their functionality impaired beyond mending. A ping-pong bat, a watering can, spoons\u2026 just the kind of ordinary items you might find in Fr\u00f6se\u2019s installations. But where she would previously amalgamate them with oozing, gushing, dripping, pouring liquids and nondescript blobs in arrested motion, she now targets the objects themselves. Certainly, there\u2019s something hilarious about the way Fr\u00f6se undermines reality \u2013 or people\u2019s expectations \u2013 in warped pastel-hued porcelain. At the same time these distortions reflect everyday irrationalities that puzzle and sometime nearly derail her. What is the use of rules that no one abides by? In a side-project that quickly grew in relevance, she experimented with glass melting through the bottom of old enamelled pans, providing them with the most delicate but impractical feet. Who says you can\u2019t work with glass in a ceramic work centre?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":32414,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-31663","kunstenaar","type-kunstenaar","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","countries-germany","disciplines-visual-artist"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
