The Enchanted Castle: 'The Pyramids of Makkum' Tulip Vase by Jurgen Bey.
In the Enchanted castle the 'Tulip Vase' collection always catches my eye it has an 'Alice in wonderland feel to it. It has a more historic background to the collection which you find out when you read further into it, but from my first impression this was one of the pieces which really stood out to me. I have always had an eye for ways of stacking objects together or on-top of each other. I like all the little Chinese details on it which relate to the original Chinese porcelain blue and white decoration. As decorative as the design is, its also very simplistic in its simple form even though it's three dimensional exterior really draws you back into all the detail. Which is maybe a main focus point to these pieces? Relating to Alice in Wonderland, in my perception, has the idea of the 'queens' which is royalty relating to the meanings of the vases themselves. The ideas which I am taking from this exhibition and especially these vases and I am going to put towards my table theatre project especially the idea of stacking and building of objects.
