CuO, CuCo3

In this project I contemplate about the qualities, sensations and contradictions about a material, a substance and an element. Copper has been present in art history for long time as a beloved material for many. In the world of ceramics, copper oxides have been the source of endless and frustrating investigations: a wild horse only conquered by the ones who persevere.
It´s beauty comes with bitter paradoxes.
