With her One Million project, Uli Aigner is taking globalisation personally. Her endeavour to produce 1,000,000 pieces of pottery with her own hands by the end of her life began in 2014. She inscribes each piece with a number indicating the exact order of its production, thus identifying the porcelain vessels as signed, unique works. Photographs of each numbered vessel, as well as the Google Maps coordinates of its location, are presented at – a transnational and transcultural art project.
Over the years, a worldwide network has evolved that virtually connects the commissioning clients with other owners of these porcelain vessels. The certainty that she can turn a piece of damp earth into a utility object useable by anyone anywhere in the world connects Uli Aigner’s work with the entire history of human development.
