My interest in Beate Kuhn's work is all about the aesthetics of her pieces, she made all of her pieces on the wheel and seemed to thrive on the meticulous, mathematical almost scientific approach to her making. This style of making is the antithesis of my own, I am much more interested in the organic evolvement of the pieces, rather than meticulously planning out where every tiny component in a piece will be placed. There are loose narratives to Kuhn's work, rhythm and movement being some, but her aesthetic seemed to mainly lie in the precise construction and purity of the forms as they were all made using a mechanical process. To me they are evocative, tactile, slightly odd and surreal looking with a suggestion of organic matter or cell like structures and this is why I am interested in her work.
