Organic Utility
— multidisciplinary project, based on the study of freedom, control and the impact of human beings on each other and on the environment.

Set of ceramic objects is the core element of the project. But organic utility developed and widened through other mediums (photo, 3D-animation, merch) by self-organised group of artists from factura furniture (Stas Iuzin, Danil Surma) and cotton creative production (Pavel Lukianov, Daria Nikitina, Max Svelkolsky, Olya Ogoneva, Katya Strucenko, Ksenia Bunina, Anna Rudaya).

Ceramic objects are the result of making furniture production process (that is deeply controlled) less influenced by person. The objects of natural form, that have resemblance with stools, counterpoise human with his quasi control of every living being on Earth.

Mistakes and the unpredictable had become the very essential parts of the organic utility ceramic set’s creation process. And the connection between the members of the group, who joined the project later, was more mycelium shaped, than hierarchic.
