SAPUM / soap decorative-utility object
AUTHORS: Akad. soch. Štefan Koval and Mgr. art. Annamária Mikulíková
Material: certified, ecological transparent soap mass
The aim of the project was to create an utility - decorative object with a temporary character.
The object is made of certified, ecological transparent soap mass that can be washed in the process of use. By layering colors and layers of material, interesting aesthetic effects are created. In the process of use, the volume naturally decreases over time, making the immediately occurring phenomena reminiscent of stones washed away by water, organic shapes created by nature. The authors had the opportunity to experiment with the color scale, shape of the object and the optical effects of the material.
This innovative approach to the natural consumption of utility items has developed valuable experience in working with new material that could be applied to other utility items.
