The catalog Wesen Oder Vasen (Creatures or Vases) accompanies and documents a series of ceramic sculptures with the same name by artist Jale Somer. With photographs by Zoé Hopf, Lars Schwabe and Robert Schittko and texts by Setareh Alipour and Jale Somer.
“Families of colourful vessels grow together into a play of meaning of animal-like intuition. Jale Somer's ceramic series Wesen oder Vasen is an interplay of elements of exotic flora and fauna. […] Wesen oder Vasen shows itself as a constantly changing organism, as something alive, as life itself as it should be: Animalistic, childlike naïve, disregarding time. Jale Somer turns her inner world inside out and formulates the spiritual spheres along with the mood of colour and light in her work.” – Setareh Alipour
