Michel Harvey, one of our artists from Montreal, Canada, is the mastermind behind the famous ceramic kraft paper bag. The technique that Harvey uses to create his magical vases and other pieces is shrouded in secrecy.
Harvey often compares his work to that of a magician. "There are many things in my bag of tricks," says Harvey. "Rien dans les mains, rien dans les poches," or "Nothing in his hand, nothing up his sleeve." His main objective is to create pieces of art that are high in quality and practical in use.
His technique, "like a magic wand, transforms common, anonymous, everyday objects into art forms that surprise, intrigue and amuse." Not only are his pieces beautiful, but they are functional as well. These handcrafted porcelain vases are designed to hold water for flowers and do not sweat.
