How did it all begin?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1666\" data-end=\"1920\">Interestingly, it started with mathematics. I was a teacher for many years, but ceramics was always present in my life. At a certain point, I decided to follow that intuition more deeply. Ceramics was not a rational decision\u2026 it felt more like a calling.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1927\" data-end=\"1998\"><strong data-start=\"1927\" data-end=\"1998\">What relationship do you see between mathematics and your ceramics?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2000\" data-end=\"2306\">More than people might expect. Mathematics taught me to observe patterns and efficient structures \u2014 how to create something strong using the least amount of material. In my work, that logic combines with something much more intuitive. I often say: the heart defines the shape, the mind makes the decisions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2313\" data-end=\"2368\"><strong data-start=\"2313\" data-end=\"2368\">Your technique is quite unique. Can you explain it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2370\" data-end=\"2696\">I work with extremely thin porcelain, often built on a balloon. It\u2019s a very slow process: each day you can only add a small amount of material, and a single piece can take weeks. Then comes the key moment \u2014 the kiln. Pieces are sometimes fired upside down, allowing gravity and heat to play an active role in the final result.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2703\" data-end=\"2751\"><strong data-start=\"2703\" data-end=\"2751\">It sounds like you don\u2019t control everything\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2753\" data-end=\"2986\">Exactly. And that\u2019s what makes it interesting. There\u2019s a balance between control and letting go. Fire, gravity, time\u2026 they are all collaborators. It\u2019s not just about technique, it\u2019s about accepting that not everything depends on you.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2993\" data-end=\"3047\"><strong data-start=\"2993\" data-end=\"3047\">What are you trying to convey through your pieces?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3049\" data-end=\"3252\">When I open the kiln and a piece has survived\u2026 there is a very emotional moment. Almost silent. My goal is for the viewer to feel something similar. It\u2019s not just an object \u2014 it\u2019s a condensed experience.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3259\" data-end=\"3357\"><strong data-start=\"3259\" data-end=\"3357\">You\u2019ve worked in China and exhibited internationally\u2026 what have you learned from that journey?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3359\" data-end=\"3562\">That ceramics is a universal language, but each culture has its own rhythm. In Jingdezhen, for example, you really feel the weight of tradition. It makes you more humble\u2026 and at the same time, more free.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3569\" data-end=\"3642\"><strong data-start=\"3569\" data-end=\"3642\">You often talk about time and slow process. Why is that so important?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3644\" data-end=\"3829\">Because we live in a culture of immediacy. Ceramics forces you to slow down. For me, working with clay is like yoga for the mind. It\u2019s a way to be present, to breathe with the material.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3836\" data-end=\"3901\"><strong data-start=\"3836\" data-end=\"3901\">What can someone expect if they attend one of your workshops?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3903\" data-end=\"4086\">Not just learning a technique. They will learn to observe, to be patient, to accept mistakes as part of the process. And above all, to trust something that cannot be fully controlled.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4093\" data-end=\"4163\"><strong data-start=\"4093\" data-end=\"4163\">What makes your approach unique compared to other ceramic artists?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4165\" data-end=\"4391\">I think it\u2019s that combination: mathematical precision and vulnerability in the process. I am always searching for the limit \u2014 working with the least amount of material possible without collapse. That\u2019s where the magic happens.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4398\" data-end=\"4816\">Beyond technique, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guyvanleemput.be\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Guy Van Leemput\u2019s work<\/strong><\/a> reminds us that ceramics \u2014 like any creative process \u2014 is an exercise in balancing intention and surrender. In a world that rewards immediacy, his practice offers the opposite: to slow down, to observe, and to trust what cannot be fully controlled. Perhaps this is where the true strength of his pieces lies \u2014 and also the invitation he extends to those who encounter his work.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4818\" data-end=\"5062\">An invitation we will soon have the opportunity to explore up close at ElTorn, where Guy will share his process in a comprehensive workshop. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eltornbarcelona.com\/en\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Click here and leave us your email<\/strong><\/a> if you\u2019d like to be notified in advance about the program and dates.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5064\" data-end=\"5079\">Warmly,<br data-start=\"5071\" data-end=\"5074\" \/>Paula<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fragility as Form \u2014 The World of Guy Van Leemput In the delicate balance between control and chance, Guy Van Leemput\u2019s work pushes the limits of porcelain.
