Material: porcelain, cork Dimensions: small: Ø 13 x 30 Suitable for Schnapps corks

The holes compromise the vase’s function. Rather than focusing on what is present, attention is drawn to what is missing. As a result, the object loses its functionality and becomes deliberately inefficient. It is up to the owner to restore its purpose as a vase—using corks or other suitable materials—or to leave it in its current state as a sculptural object.
Every Vase is handmade, with different amount of holes, numbered and signed.
