This classically shaped vase is made of stoneware turned on a potter’s wheel. Ornaments depicting animals such as a stag, dogs and fish, as well as human figures, including the Virgin Mary and farmers, were then applied to the surface and painted before being fired.

Capturing the transience of life
- • Kati collects all sorts of objects in order to re-use them
- • Her works attempt to capture the transience of life
- • She likes to combine different materials with ceramics
At the young age of 16, Kati Jünger found her way into crafts. “Being raised in a family of artists, there was no alternative but to focus on my creative potential,” she says. Ceramics provided a fertile ground for expression, and she has always taken inspiration from nature "and the transience of life and things”. So you might meet her wandering along a riverbank or at a flea market, searching for objects whose primary life has come to an end, but whose second life is waiting. Embedded in the aesthetics of ancient Asian ceramics, Kati's guiding principle is to attempt to capture and overcome the transience of life through replication and rearrangement.
