 Anton
and Hanlie studied fine
arts at the Pretoria
Technikon
majoring in drawing and
painting. They work from their studio, Bosch Ceramic Art
Studio, on the outskirts of White River, Mpumalanga,
South Africa where they produce a variety of
contemporary ceramics.
Anton
established himself as a potter in whose work the
painterly aspects plays a significant role. Some
examples from the prolific collection of his current
work:
porcelain vases and
bowls,
wall murals and
tiles,
porcelain hand-built
vessels and
ink drawings with a
strong symbolic message. His work has been exhibited
extensively in South Africa and it is featured in
various national and international collections.
Hanlie`s work expresses her parallel
interest in the medium of both clay
and
painting. Apart from colourfully
decorated
plates and dishes, Hanlie`s ceramics comprise mostly
hand-built
pieces and
sculptures. She is well known for her
figurines of dancers and gymnasts and clay heads with
other- worldly expressions.
