MONUMENT #495, 2021

HIGH FIRE - STONEWARE WHITE RAKU CLAY, GLAZED INSIDE MATT WHITE
13 cm
The Monument series is the result of two converging influences, an interest in architecture and the built environment and a love of science fiction. The vessels are constructed using a slab building technique. The clay body has been fired and is usually left unglazed to enhance the vessel's texture and to illuminate its material quality. The vessels are glazed on the inside to maintain a level of functionality.

This body of work sees the introduction of rhythmic, organic elements that become motifs that appear in contrast to the overall static, monolithic forms but result in overall playful quality.
