Tunnel - Johannes Nagel

The catalogue Tunnel presents works from 2018 to 2023 by ceramicist Johannes Nagel (*1979). The majority of the objects
were formed by the artist's hands digging into sand to form cavities, negative spaces, which were then molded and revealed
using liquid porcelain. By doing this, says co-author Esther Niebel, the artist imprints his own presence in to the objects. In addition to the extraordinary shapes thus created, expressive colors and the painting of the objects play a central role in Nagel's
work. Accompanied by essays, the excavated and cast pieces are presented in full-page photographs in a staccato portrayal of
objects and ideas.
