The vessel is my object of choice. Clay is my material of choice, because it contains so many possibilities: a plastic, amorphous material of incomparable formability that can be fired into imperishable, precise forms.
About
Espersen, as a ceramicist, skilfully navigates the precarious tightrope between control and chance. He is constantly striving to find the right balance, even though he is uncertain whether his next step will lead to progress or a potentially disastrous fall. Either way, his ultimate goal is only to create a quivering aesthetic that challenges his own taboos. As a result, he conceives these sculptures that exist at the intersection of reason and emotion, freedom and determinism, order and chaos. Morten Løbner Espersen's oeuvre echoes the inherent dualities of our human nature.
