100天，每天一个马克杯

        


Studio Charlie and Blair的两位创始人Charlie和Blair参加了一个名叫“100dayproject”的活动。这个活动不在于结果，而在于过程。他们要利用100天时间，每天挑战做一只马克杯。这些杯子均手工制成，形状各异充满探索性，同时色彩均为蓝色和白色，图案各异。最终他们完满的完成这个挑战，在过程中，他们充分的与当地工匠接触，收获颇多。可在澳大利亚昆士兰州的毅力谷布朗斯维克街381号看到。


The #100daysofmugs project was in response to the #100dayproject created by Elle Luna & The Great Discontent (https://thegreatdiscontent.com/100days).  The #100dayproject is a celebration of process that encourages everyone to participate in 100 days of making. The great surrender is the process; showing up day after day is the goal. For the 100-Day Project, it’s not about fetishizing finished products—it’s about the process.


Being passionate about ceramics  I was drawn to the idea of creating a mug a day for 100 days.  Making a hundred of anything can be challenging enough, but there’s something about making a hundred of something you’re truly passionate about enticing.  It’s that passion and drive that keeps you motivated to create day in and day out.  It’s interesting looking back at the project as you can see that the initial mugs are more of a “conventional” mug shape.  However through the project you can see there’s a clear exploration of shape, form and function as some of the pieces don’t necessarily represent a conventional mug.   


At the end of the 100 days I had 100 mugs sitting on my dining room table.  Initially I had no plan on doing anything with them, as the whole project was just about the process of creating.  However after being in contact with the local gallery Artisan, they were more than happy to display the work in one of their windows.  The mugs are currently on display and available at Artisan 381 Brunswick Street, Fortitude Valley, Qld, Australia, 4006.
