‘In Greek antiquity major events were often depicted on ceramics. These events, from birth until golden wedding, were shown on a tragically, lofty manner. Today, this way of presenting is still used, for example by high quality Wedgwood china.
These elegant, sophisticated, three-dimensional decorations are loved by people from all walks of life. Lara de Greef liked to decorate pottery with images that call for more recognition with everyday acts of life, such as dressing and undressing, getting into or out one’s shoes, sweeping the floor or practising sports.
In Lara’s designs, the detailed decorations show these animations very nicely.’
