“I want to be truthful to the materials I am working with, and would like the piece to reflect the joy of making. I have always been drawn to the Eastern Sensibilities of traditional and contemporary art, especially ceramic art. As a Westerner, my traditions are much closer to the Bauhaus, than anything else. These pieces are telling the tales of enjoying the immediacy of working with clay, while form follows function.” – Szilvia Gyorgy

Artist Biography: Szilvia Gyorgy was born in Budapest. She arrived in Sydney in 1989. She has been practicing sculpture since 2001 in its various manifestations. She is especially drawn to the overlap between art, sculpture and its residual function as design. Her primary medium of choice is porcelain but loves to experiment with ideas involving various other materials.
