Kristen Van Patten Coupon June 2025 - 60% OFF

The founder of Kristen Van Patten is a multidisciplinary artist and professor who lives and works in Austin, Texas. His work was largely influenced by his interest in architecture, particularly Modernist architecture and its successor, the Brutalist movement, which advocated the quality of concrete, which entered the city from the 1950s to the mid-1970s. Some of the elements he uses in his ceramic pieces include strong lines and geometric shapes, matte finishes, and the aesthetic of exposed industrial materials such as poured concrete and steel "work" beams. The functional and decorative pieces created by Kristen Van Patten challenge him to incorporate his love of modern design and structural engineering into personal, handcrafted, one-of-a-kind objects.
