For more than
25 years, Peter Thumm mastered with brio all the technical
facets of the art of ceramics, which allows him a full
freedom for wholly dedicating himself to artistic creation.
As well as commissioned works, unique pieces are created
in his studios, and also sometimes limited series,
which are stamped with his very own style. Peter Thumm
likes breaking the severity of geometric forms – sphere, cone, hexagon,
octagon and cube – through decoration at times
inspired by models from classical antiquity. Frescos
and reliefs are covered with figurative motifs full
of bright colours in lively rhythmic ornaments where
themes like “dance and movement” or “mankind
and nature” are revolving. The artistic creations
of Peter Thumm attest to his wish to put into dialogue
various cultural worlds and art forms. His work merges
painting, sculpture and architecture into one creative
uniqueness.
