You & I are, Earth, 2023, Merchandise Memory Land Studio, T-Shirt and Porcelain is a unique project that features a compilation of MLS logos created from monogrammed numbers, initial letters, and marks inscribed on pottery and porcelain. This project is realized thanks to a thorough compilation in a dictionary of marks by Raph. M and Terry. H Kovel from the book Kovels' Dictionary of Marks / Pottery And Porcelain: 1650 to 1850, along with several other dictionaries.

These books, organized by important characteristics and with a comprehensive cross-reference system, allow for quick identification of the geographical location of the mark, the factory or family name of the manufacturer, the type of product, the method of production of the mark on the object, the color of the mark, and the period during which the mark was used. These encyclopedias provide the fastest way to identify American, English, European, Chinese porcelain and more. Once a piece is identified, research and experience.

We have created a series of plates incorporating several of these marks to create our own, including our studio name, location, and year of production. These marks, traditionally hand-applied on the botton of plates, have been placed on the top and laser-engraved onto the porcelain. In this way, the tradition of industrial pottery is repeated through the use of molds and marks, but with a contemporary twist.

The inspiration behind this project stems from the rich history and meticulous documentation of pottery and porcelain marks found in various historical dictionaries. Kovels' Dictionary of Marks - Pottery And Porcelain: 1650 to 1850, among others, serves as a vital resource in tracing the origins and characteristics of pottery marks. These marks, often small and intricate, tell stories of their creators and their era.

By studying these marks and their details, we aimed to bridge the past with the present. Our series of plates not only honors these historical traditions but also integrates modern techniques, such as laser engraving, to create something entirely new and unique. Each piece is a testament to the enduring legacy of pottery craftsmanship and our studio's dedication to preserving and innovating within this art form. This projet was presented in December 2023 in Paris, France at Villa Belleville.
