V1 SALON is pleased to present Insomnia Sea, a solo exhibition by Anika Lori. Creatures under water. Eternal change and never asleep. Insomnia Sea is a solo exhibition by Anika Lori – and the first exploring the craftsmanship of ceramic while still examining metaphysical symbolism in a contemporary context. Despite the use of a somehow new medium, Lori has been working in clay for years. It is part of a personal journey, where the artist’s DNA is significantly present in her works; whether it is Lori’s own handprint on the Greatest Lovers, a caviar spoon shaped by her firm grip and glazes made to never be recreated. Just like the creatures of the sea. In Insomnia Sea many of the works should be observed from different angles, and you’ll discover numerous faces, expressions and a dynamic that is spectacular. They reflect life below the surface. Something that must not be taken for granted.
