Kris will be transporting his studio straight into the Soden Collection this May with a live demonstration of his acclaimed cracked ceramic wall sculptures.
He will be producing a new work from start to finish on the 25th of May and will be taking questions throughout the afternoon.
The Fratturato series, crafted from a meticulously formulated blend of pigments, ceramic compounds, and natural resins, unveils mesmerizing organic patterns as it undergoes the drying process, skillfully guided by the artist's hand throughout.
"These unfired, cracked canvasses replicate the otfen mesmerising beauty of dried-out mudflats.
Kris began producing them during the pandemic when he ran out of recycled plastic pellets for his polymer work; "I had loads of pigment and ceramics in my studio and I just started mixing everything together. Pocelain is the main ingredient, mixed with zinc and titanium""
