Katharina Kaminski
Born Montevideo, uruguay, 1994
a Paris based artist born in Uruguay, Kaminski works in sculpture and installations. approaching her art practice as an exploration of the subconscious, kaminski’s work asks fundamental questions about who we are, contemplating what it means to have Both spirit and a body, a metaphysical existence in a physical world. Seeking to understand the origin of all life and the universality of human experience, kaminski employs a sculptural vocabulary that celebrates that dialectic of spirituality and embodiment, gravitates towards strangeness in form, and draws upon surrealism and abstraction to help us see the familiar anew. Following her intuition and the hidden language of dreams, Kaminski sculpts and molds against the norm imposed by reason and logic to find what lies beneath the apparent order of things
Kaminski works in ceramic, marble, and bronze, varying in scale and form. Interested in unexpected and shifting perspectives, her work employs elements of the zoomorphic, the amorphous, the alien, and the meteoric. A number of her sculptures integrate fire, giving this primordial element a container and a form within the body. Inspired by sanctuaries and with the intention of creating a sheltered space for emotion, Kaminski’s installations are composed with clay, space, sound, silence, light, and darkness. Her work invites us to moments of inner contemplation, to create our own sacred rituals that engender expansiveness and unity with both the seen and unseen world
kaminski’s work has been featured in premiere art and design publications and is available exclusively at studiotwentyseven

MANTRA
Exclusive to studiostwentyseven, MANTrA is a UNIQUE CERAMIC SCULPTURE that is the apotheosis of Kaminski’s Womb series. composed of candlelight and clay, mantra is an elemental sanctuary where bodies dance around a fire. The synthesis of light, heat, and sound produce a unique sensory experience, evoking a tribal dance or ritual. Like all the works in the womb series, mantra aims to question the limits of fertility and to ponder the myth of creation. MANTRA invites us to consider where creation begins, celebrating both the miracle of life and the miracle of the creative act
Mantra asks fundamental questions about what is is to make something, to give life to something that is not necessarily human but is molded by the artist’s hands, as kaminski so eloquently does here with clay and fire. in addition to being an ode to strength and the inner capacity given us, Mantra proposes new ways of looking at embodiment, meditating on the undiscovered abundance between the physical and the ethereal, the material and the spiritual
