Artist statement

The feminine obsession involved in the never ending chase after dynamically changing fashion fads that is almost turned into a circus in its attempts to catch-up, is translated by Karin Zur into a decorative obsession which covers the facets of the objects that are meticulously made, with patterns of rich ornaments. These patterns taken from a world of textiles: cloths, tufted laces, leathers, plastic, embroideries and weavings – all of them soft and pleasant materials, traditional in everyday women's accessories - are poured in Karin's world into hard baked clay. The colourful richness which she well imitates is meticulous in its details in the drawing of illusion upon the objects which almost absurdly imitate with great precision materials and shapes.
