The 27
The Datavase System
'The 27' is a representation of the 27 archetypal vase shapes used to create the 'Datavase System'.
The development of the 'Datavase System' started with the discovery of an image published by the U.S. National Museum entitled ‘History of Vase’. This image represents the history of the vase, from prehistoric times to the present, in 27 forms. The Datavase System is hence based on these existing models, exploring universalizability of ceramic form and its limits, while also functioning as a database providing an endless number of solutions and templates for turning new form on the pottery wheel.
