It was so satisfying to build a Mishima texture with just 2 colours of clay and a repeating pattern.

Sometimes I make bowls.

Here is the quick 30-second how-to for my nerikomi fold bowls.

Slip cast ceramic fingers.

First batch of slip casted fingers was a success.
They will be part of a sculpture, some have been modified after the slip cast, which I didn’t know I could do.
Peace out!

Ceramic wall sculpture called Fossil. It looks like a round rock that has been cracked to show the silhouette of a human in the foetal position in it like a fossil.

Thank you Maura. I totally meant it to look like someone emerges from a sewer grate! With the shiny glaze on the hand, it looks sleek from whatever flows below.

Open up for fresh air,
For freedom,
Get me out, equinox,

Very interesting effects!

Multimedia sculpture. A ceramic hand pointing up a d holding on to an old forestry metal tool, with a piece that is pointing in the same direction as the index finger.

“Onward” is about the journey of humanity, exerting itself to keep on, to stay the course, sometimes without thinking enough about the endgame.
