SS568Y6 From the Land of the Living
This porcelain, gold-nippled sculpture stands at a precarious angle. Composed of an assemblage of slip-moulded elements, it is glazed, overlaid with slip transfers and accented with gold lustre. The images – figures, objects, and text – hint at the absurdities of contemporary culture, forming a strange, humorous, creature-like collage.

About this maker
Having grown up in East Germany, a spirit of friction and tension between perceived opposites informs much of Schneider’s work. Their punk-baroque sculptures operate at the margins of functionality and aesthetic convention, riding the boundary between binary opposites in ways that invite speculation and test both the powers of interpretation and the materiality of clay.
