Welcome to Ömer Öner Ceramics Shop

About my practice:I repurpose found objects by assembling them into ceramic forms using mould-making and slip-casting techniques. Discarded items like door handles, bed knobs, and metal fragments are transformed into ceramic, preserving their essence while altering their materiality. This process turns these objects into hybrid ceramic pieces, retaining their original characteristics but giving them new functions and meanings. I find the transition process fascinating, inserting my practice into a historic tradition of using clay as an imitative and reproduction material. My work explores transformation and regeneration, emphasizing the creative potential in overlooked items.
