Ivan Jelínek

His teapots, jugs, sugar bowls and cream jugs, glasses and serving trays are not the most everyday utensils, hidden away in kitchen cupboards. They are made from quality porcelain with a glazed coating to which silver has been applied. By expanding the shape and the movement of the contours, they have become sculptures with recognizable human traits. The spout of a pot sometimes hangs a little listlessly to one side, while another flirts with the jug next to it.

The artist models them with great love, as he does the tables on which the showpieces are exhibited.
