TANIA VRANCIC<br />
For some time now I have been pursuing freedom in my work and how to link my<br />
ceramics practice with my painting practice. I have found that my best work is made<br />
when I’m ‘in the zone’ having fully let go of any inhibitions, preconceived ideas and<br />
expectations, taking risks to push the boundaries of my practice further. The link<br />
between ceramics and painting can be clearly seen in the free brushstrokes in both<br />
mediums, the colour pallet chosen and the general theme of freedom through the<br />
brush strokes.<br />
I am posing two questions “What does freedom mean to you?” and “When do you<br />
personally feel most free?”. Freedom began with some sketches on old book pages<br />
which then lead to sourcing letters and documents related to the theme Freedom<br />
or juxtaposed to it for contrast. These writings have informed and challenged my<br />
personal understanding of freedom and how many of us take freedom for granted in<br />
our culture.<br />
Tania Vrancic is a ceramic artist based in Canberra, Australia. Her designs have<br />
(and continue to) gain success at high end design markets based in Canberra. Her<br />
production work is sold under the name ‘Kittilä by Tania Tuominen’ (her maiden<br />
name). In 2016, Tania made the decision to move from production work and focus on<br />
creating conceptual artworks.<br />
