Bart van Didden is a Dutch designer that works from his "Studio Baer" in Sittard the netherlands.
He is famous for his ceramics but fascinated by the uniqueness of nature.
"I get inspired by the pure and simple technique in which she unfolds slowly to the world;
full of elegance and subtlety it carries me to my dreamworld filled with love for everything
that gives me a feeling of warmth and gratitude, as a reflection of myself.
capturing it's refined beauty i love making 'jewels of nature' with that sense of emotion.
still i'm exploring life, embracing the imperfect.... in the search for that next little special 'thing'."

I really like simple designs that show the beauty, vulnerable and fragile side of life , especially in this time were nothing is obvious. I prefer light subtle structures and little details to show the strength of something little in a big screen, mostly I’m fascinated by natural processes and butterflies.
I was mostly inspired by butterflies and white weddings. A fragile and natural design that is covered in a natural veil that attracks white butterflies. A design that gives you hope and makes you wonder, a party in a simple way.
white delphiniums from G-Fresh, glass bottles, fishing net, (bees)wax, latex
The white delphiniums because I just love this flower for it’s stature and the little airy and butterfly like flowers. The netting and the beeswax will create a beautiful fragile structure and a little veil to catch all the beautiful little flowers in it. Wax is just a beautiful and simple material to work with, to create fragile structures that are also strong.
Step by Step creation of "Frozen in Time"
I created cocoons from wine bottles in which the delphiniums will be placed, they are hanging in (like) folding screens. The cocoons are treated with latex and wax which will give them a nice skin. The nets are treated also with latex and wax to create that extra bit of vulnerability. The bottles will be covered with the structures and once the delphiniums are placed in it the flowers will be (inter)weaved into the structure.
