Heidi Hentze
Danish Ceramic Artist
“AN ATMOSPHERE OF FRAGILE EXISTENCE AND THE PRESENCE OF ABSENCE ARE OFTEN THE FOCAL POINTS OF HENTZE'S CRISP, DELICATE PIECES.”
Heidi Hentze investigates porcelain and glaze in poetically folded pieces. Based on inspiration from architecture and kirigami, she challenges, with her skilled technical ability: material, gravity, and classic slab techniques.
Hentze meticulously assembles paper-thin clay constructions. Subsequently, in the lesser controllable firing process, an organic deformation adds to her pieces the beauty of decay- a poetic story.
