Anahit Pogosian
Anahit Pogosian’s Classical Collection is a tribute to ancient water vessels but the pieces are designed to function solely as sculptural objects. “The funny thing about these pieces is that they don’t actually work,” explains the Brooklyn-based designer. “Water gets trapped and the vessel can’t be completely emptied. Pouring out of the fountainhead makes a mess because there’s no spout. I imagine in the past these dysfunctional properties were the reason these forms were considered rejects. However I find these properties fascinating and beautiful in their own way.” The original collection is made with red brown clay bodies, connecting the work to the earth and ancient pottery. The stained, saturated colors are a new development, and color and size customizations are both possible and encouraged.
