Glacial Erratic, 2014

Glacial Erratic, 2014, Ceramic / porcelain, 150 x 15 mm

Brought into shape by manipulated movement in the damp earthy state and transformed into snow-white porcelain objects by the embers of the kiln, each object encloses its secret in its dry earthen coat. Organically grown forms from nature, reminiscent of flotsam, the shell of an animal, roots of an old tree, or horns of a wild animal.

In the combination of textile and porcelain, the material was brought to its minimal limits in order to crystallise the fineness of the objects.
