Mummies in Lace Porcelain Sculptures and Jewellery by Tereza Eisnerová

Eisner is drawn to porcelain for its delicate and refined nature, its smooth surface and its solid yet fragile physical characteristics. Over time, her work with this medium has evolved an entirely original style that distinctly pushes the limits of the material’s usual possibilities. Although her art includes life-sized figures and large-scale sculptures and reliefs, when working with porcelain she is focused on small or even miniature sculptures in which she can explore the material’s full potential. Her virtuoso work with the miniature format and her highly expressive themes of mummies and other macabre scenes make her a truly one-of-a-kind phenomenon on the Czech sculpture scene.
