Mårten Medbo | Feature in Ceramics Now

"Mårten Medbo, Strange Love at Berg Gallery, Stockholm", March 8, 2024

Through his exploration of clay as a medium, Medbo has established himself as a prominent figure on Sweden’s material-based art scene. Wheel-throwing is the core of Medbo’s practice, wherein he skillfully navigates the boundaries between the familiar and the unknown. The pieces often bear resemblance to anthropomorphic or biomorphic structures, without being fully identifiable as such. Additionally, it often appears as if they’re undergoing a process of organic growth or mutation.
