<p>Amor-Perfeito vase made from the recreated recipe for the porcelain body of Nantgarw China Works and inspired by a plate by Nantgarw China Works with a floral motif. De Jesus used the pansy as decoration because of the derogatory queer connotations associated with the flower's name. However,the Portuguese translation of 'pansy' is Amor-Perfeito which means ‘perfect love’. This word has been added in white clay letters around the circumference of the vase.</p> <p>This piece was made to be part of the On Your Face Collective which is a social enterprise that highlights queer creatives in Wales, for the groups Queer Reflections exhibition in 2022 at the Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea.</p>
