ETERNITY

The collection is the first large-scale work that reflects Anna Jožová's interest in ecology and the broader context of the impact of society's interventions in the environment. Although this interest has not yet manifested itself in the treatment of the surface of the vases (as in her subsequent work), it is primarily in the choice of material, i.e. the use of recycling of shards destined for disposal. These are hand-picked, cleaned and recycled in the vases. Chance plays a significant role in the final form of the Eternity vases — the packing of shards and their subsequent movement and spillage on the surface of the objects caused by heat treatment cannot be fully controlled.
