ABOUT THE PIECE
“Why” (Hand-formed porcelain, finished with acrylic) focuses on the ordinary everyday and even mundane the simple banana and the question? Why has it become so prominent in art In the past, today, and no doubt in the future? Maybe it gives us the opportunity to look at things in a slightly different way, but we will always ask the question: why?
At least that keeps us thinking and alive.
