These beautiful ceramic objects are made by Angela Valamanesh
The texture reminded me of the texture of the tip of a match

BAUHAUS

Kitchen towels (1937) by Kitty van der Mijll-Dekker (1908-2004)
The Textile Museum Tilburg (Holland) is showing her work at the moment.
The Museum still reproduces some of her work and sells it in their shop.
She studied at the Bauhaus school for art and architecture in Dessau Germany

The photograph is made by Ola Kolehmainen via Galerie Anhava,
He was born in 1964 in Helsinki but lives in Berlin.
There is no real connection between him and Bauhaus,
but for me there's a connection.
