Jobe is the name of the Bas Kosters' teddy bear and is short for Joy Bear. The teddy bear for me is a symbol of connection and care and represents the strong connection we can feel towards an object, and how we project our hopes and dreams upon it.
I have created an experiment where I used a textile bear as the base for a ceramic bear. The family of bears are lovingly produced by renowned 'Cor Unum Ceramics and Art' in 's Hertogenbosch.
Jobe is the result of a research project about JOY, and the manifestation of joyful feelings. The teddy bear plays a leading role as a symbol of transference and generosity.
