Breathing life into clay
- • Ragnheiður needs to be hands on making
- • Every piece she forms is different
- • Emotion drives her to create the work
Ragnheiður Ingunn Ágústsdóttir creates work that is a conversation between art, craft and design. She studied product design in Milan at the Domus Academy but quickly found she has a personal connection with clay. She went on to study ceramics at the École des Arts Décoratifs in Strasbourg. Her forms investigate the emotions of everyday life: functional objects that express a type of ethnography. Her objects are primal, they appear to be grown not made. Colour and texture bring an element of play into the work; avoiding taking itself too seriously. She has exhibited widely in Iceland and abroad. She has work in the collections of the EFTA, Brussels and the Icelandic Embassy, Tokyo.
