Kemal Uludag - Ceramic Sculptures
Sculpture
Kemal Uludags work, in ceramic, seems liquid made solid. I am reminded of scientific nanosecond photographs of splashes or microstructures too small to be seen. They also have a figurative reference subsumed within a larger structure. He reveals, I theorize, the psychic clash of cultures that are part of their heritage. Surrealism surfaces when the unconscious rises though our protective ego structure. Change, stress, deep psychic yearnings can fuel these images, just as in dreams. (Frank Shifreen)
