For almost 20 years the artist and goldsmith Peter Bauhuis has been exploring a technique for
which as yet there are hardly any references. Applying experimental curiosity and creative
materials research he has since worked on the simultaneous casting of different metals
plumbing the depths of the materials' limitations. He plays with chance directing it so that
the vessels emerge in ever new variations. As the metals oxidize gradations of color emerge on
the objects' surfaces bringing to mind abstract drawings. The Hamburg-based photographer Hans
Hansen regarded as one of the most important product and still life photographers has taken
his own unique look at the objects staging 18 current vessel works from Peter Bauhuis's
Simultanea series.
