As an ongoing body of work, everyday sculptures is an ever-evolving, ongoing collection of one-of-a-kind wheel-thrown sculptural items, designed and entirely handmade by ​giulia at ​her atelier in rotterdam. Even though each ceramic sculpture is wheel thrown, it appears to be “carved out” of a block and placed on a pedestal. ​she sees ceramics as ritual tools and art as part of everyday life. In my practice, ​guilia likes to investigate the tension between functional and sculptural, turning clay into abstract shapes and symbols, yet with a strong material presence. ​her goal is to create sculptural pieces that accompany and celebrate daily rituals, becoming domestic totems, joyful protectors of the home, and the mindful ritual we all carefully craft every day. “there must be no art detached from life, beautiful things to look at and ugly things to use.” bruno munari giulia cosenza is a designer and ceramicist based in rotterdam, the netherlands.
