ZURICH COLLECTION
Next Article
Russell’s artistic evolution has been marked by a restless experimentation with different ceramic formats. From tiles to handbuilt sculptures to vessels, his work has been a journey of constant exploration and discovery. The Zurich Collection is the latest chapter in this artistic journey, and it is one that reflects a bold and unapologetic aesthetic.
Drawing inspiration from the Swiss city of Zurich and its avantgarde heritage, the Zurich Collection is a departure from Russell’s previous work. The pieces are characterized by their dark, edgy, and propulsive energy. Russell sets large architectural forms against jagged, hard-edged marks, creating a tension that is both exciting and unsettling.
