Bettina Ammann: With my body of work, I want to provoke feelings and questions centering around human discomfort. The reflection of discomfort and my own humanity, the world I live in, the people and society I‘m surrounded by is my motivation and inspiration. I am interested in the feelings that are unpleasant that we try to hide, or we often turn away from. I work primary in clay as I create shapes in porcelain that have a smooth appearance and are visually appealing with an invitation to the sensory quality of touch. My sculptures are residing somewhere between beauty and awkwardness. I use simple, minimal form and color to reduce my intention to its essence. These hand-built forms are made in a repetitive and meditative way. The slow process helps to rethink my inspiration and the feelings that I want to create. I highlight the intimate, conflicting, personal human qualities.
