Pekka Paikkari Art

b. 1960

Pekka Paikkari is a ceramic artist living and working in Helsinki, Finland, where he has been a member of the Arabia Art Department Society since 1983. He is primarily known for large-scale wall sculptures, unique sculptural objects and monumental public installations. Using clay as his primary material, Pekkari’s works blur the lines between fine art, design and traditional craft. His expert use of the medium proves a rich analogy for both the human condition, displaying great strength and fragility in equal measure as well as the passing of time, registering as either permanent or ephemeral based on the depth of the lens. His work is included in many prestigious museum collections, including the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Ceramics Museum of Barcelona and the Shigaraki Museum of Contemporary Ceramic Art in Japan, among others.

"Bowl (CH1)", Contemporary, Porcelain, Sculpture, Vessel Form, Glass Detail
By Bonnie Seeman
Located in St. Louis, MO
Bonnie Seeman grew up in Miami, Florida with a propensity towards anatomy illustration and the dazzling colors and rich foliage of the Miami landscape. Developing her technique with porcelain and glass, Seeman channeled her inspirations; resulting in vessels that are both beautiful and macabre. Combinations of muscular and skeletal anatomy and plant forms are the makeup of these sculptural utilitarian vessels. Instead of dwelling on dying, Seeman’s palpable forms culminate in an acute awareness and awe toward life, renewal, nature, and vitality. Shortly after completing her master’s degree in Fine Arts, Seeman was recognized by Galeria OMR in Mexico City, a gallery known for its cutting-edge artists. In effect, Seeman’s porcelain was taken out of the craft context and placed in exhibitions such as ARCO in Madrid, FIAC in Paris, and Art Basel. She shows extensively throughout the United States and was recipient of the Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation 2005 Biennial Competition Award.
