Large Taju Vase by Willem Van Hooff

About This Piece

Contemporary Design

Taju Large vase by Willem Van Hooff. Dimensions: D42 x H63 cm. Material: Glazed Ceramics. Core is a serie of vessels. Inspired by prehistoric african building techniques. I have been fascinated by vessels they have such a clear and easy function. There function is to hold and transport water. But besides that it has been an canvas for humanity to express themselves with. When I started to express myself through this object, a new form of language came out. I wanted to challenge the contour of a vessels by bringing them out of balance. Each vessel contains a hidden chamber that brings the vessels back into balance by weight of the water they cary. Willem van Hooff 1992, In my work I want to show the ability of forgotten techniques, products and materials. I want to visualise these forgotten “stories” and give them a new future. I’m interested in a raw style of working with materials, trying to bring my objects to life. for me a good products needs to have a mind, body and a soul. The mind of the objects because it has to function, the body because it has to look good. And the soul because it needs to have a character. And that soul often gets lots in the apparent perfection of mass production.
