Artist Jólan van der Wiel has been exploring a unique method for constructing his art objects, embarking on a journey to create an entirely new field of architecture. In the video below, you’ll see, enigmatically portrayed, a process by which the artist builds up his sculpture layer by layer using magic – I mean magnets.
To fabricate the series of ceramic sculptures for his Magnetism Meets Architecture series, van der Wiel mixed water with clay to make a slip, a liquidy suspension usually used for decorating pottery or casting shapes from molds. In other words, to form anything from the slip alone would be difficult. That is, unless you invent some crazy magnetic technique.…
