Product Description & Reviews
The vase symbolises the experience of changes in life for the artist Dror Benshetrit who works in America. Accordingly, his development of the Vase of Phases has progressed through several stages of creation on its way to completion. The basis is a feminine shaped vase which enters into an experimental phase when it is shattered, as is the artist's intention. It then becomes rougher, seductive, sharp and enticing. These changes are visualised on the shattered object by smudged cracks and smoothed out folds. The Vase of Phases is thus awarded a new type of beauty showing traces of the three phases it has passed through. The Vase of Phases is available in black or white. Employing the talents of more than 100 famous artists and designers, Germany's forward-thinking Rosenthal produces original products that reflect the aesthetic, value, and spirit of their time. Dror Benshetrit's Vases of Phases explore the transitions that occur in a life change. Available in white or black, each vase makes a dramatic statement alone or joins the series of three that complete the artist's vision. The 8-1/4-inch vase, the smallest of the vessels, is crafted with voluptuous curves like a woman's body and finished with a matte white exterior and glossy white interior glaze. In the next phase of creation, Benshetrit then shatters the porcelain to make a landscape of broken shards, coarse surfaces, and sharp lines. Finally, the pieces are put back together and smoothed into an imperfect but still beautiful form. As a display piece or as a working vase with flowers, this sculptural figure is sure to capture the viewer's imagination. --Kara Karll
