Julie & Jesse developed unique casting techniques to seize direct impressions of the piles of broken molds they found in the Chinese capital of porcelain: Jingdezhen. Seen as artifacts of mass production the molds were re-used to set forth a reminiscence of the history and present a real-time archeology of the city.
The particular process to make each piece results in a unique and unrepeatable shape as the molds continue to decay and color combinations change. Fragment(s) is an invitation to think about production processes and turning serial production into one-of-a-kind vases.
Fragment(s) have been exhibited at institutions such as M+ Museum for Visual Culture (Hong Kong), the Triennale Di Milano (Italy), Musée Magnelli (France), Chicago Design Museum (USA), and are held in private and corporate collections, as well as the public permanent collections at M+ Museum for Visual Culture (Hong Kong).
Note: Surface irregularities are an inherent part of the design. They contribute to the uniqueness of the vessel.
