The Plum

Hi.
We’re Olga and Kristina.
And we’re artists.
Kristina is an artist with a classical academic background.
I’ve been working in fashion and theater for most of my life.
Right now I live in Ireland and I make ceramics.
Kristina lives for several countries.
I am also passionate about the idea of selling art.
And I want to convey to modern mankind the idea that for the price of a burger, fries, a drink and doughnuts that are not good for the whole family, they can buy eternal and valuable - buy art for their home.
Artists work very hard because they can’t do otherwise.
An artist sees the world and speaks through images. Art has the power to change your state of being, and it’s a lot more expensive than your weekly shopping spree.
People spend more on useless calories than they do on the beauty of the surrounding reality. They buy cleaning products go bathrooms, drink mostly bad wine, celebrating another nephew’s useless christening.
and funerals instead of buying a painting, or a valuable book for the house.
I see the idea as helping people see the value of the aesthetics of everyday life. Life is too short to spend it in front of the TV with chicken nuggets and beer.
We don’t use the power of artificial intelligence. We use our senses and our own ability to see the world. Buying art is a chance to stay alive.

Our pottery can now be found on weekends at the Dún Laoghaire–Ráth an Dúin, Dublin.

Why do people buy vases? Or large dishes? Why buy paintings? Or handmade teacups?
Choosing an author’s piece is the choice of someone with developed aesthetic needs.
I have not used factory-made dishes at home for last few years, and I am very happy if coming to a restaurant I meet a beautiful serving in author’s dishes. Since we all choose our own meanings in life, I prefer aesthetics and things that have meanings and someone’s soul.
Just think about what you eat out of three times a day? Where do you put flowers?
I hope you always have fresh flowers in your house…
