The purpose of the Master's thesis titled »Installation of sculptures made of knit waste and ceramics« is creating the art installation and a collection of ceramic products made out of wasted knit. The master's thesis covers the design and work behind the collection, from the first inspiration to the final presentation.
The master's thesis presents the process of creating sculptures and collection of products, made out of knit waste and ceramics. The presented work consists of two parts – an artistic installation, which led me into creating a collection of useful ceramic products, also presented as artistic ceramics.
In the theoretical part, the concepts of ceramics and knitting, their history and their use in the modern world are presented in a more detailed way. Examples of contemporary artists working with knitted and/or ceramic materials are also presented. In the experimental part of the thesis, there are presented both parts of the experiment in a more detailed way. It includes inspiration behind it, work procedures, materials and color palette, sketches, and photos of the final product.
The final result of the master's thesis is an installation made of knit waste and ceramic powder paste and a collection of ceramic products.
