OUGD601 / William Luz

"SOMEWOW is an evolving collection of ceramics and one off pieces by William Edmonds, exploring the place where function meets flippancy."
All of William Luz's creations have a hand-made aesthetic to them, however, the ceramics in particular show this the most. They are made completely by hand so every finger indentation is visible. Every piece is a one-off and as well as the shape looking very hand-made the painting is done in a very abstract, organic way too.

On ‘Look Up’, an online print store and a platform, they describe Luz's work;
“Will’s practice is “concerned with drawing,” and even a quick glance through his work reveals a finely tuned facility for line. It lends an organic, handmade quality to his work, and even his ceramics translate the language of drawing from two to three dimensions. From a distance, his screenprints exhibit the crisp line and even colours one might expect from a process designed for mechanical reproduction. However, up close there’s a discernible wobble to the line, as most of his screenprints are created using hand cut paper stencils.”
