This piece feels like it was pulled straight from the earth, embodying both geological and organic qualities. The stark contrast between the rough, unglazed lower portion and the smoother, partially vitrified upper section creates a striking visual and textural dynamic. The way the glaze has pooled and melted over the rim, interacting with the underlying clay, gives it a sense of movement—almost as if the clay is still in the process of transforming.
The irregular lip and asymmetry add to its raw, primal aesthetic, reinforcing the idea that this vessel isn’t just an object but a snapshot of natural forces at work. The layers of clay, with their earthy reds, tans, and grays, resemble stratified rock formations, making it feel like a relic of deep time. It’s a piece that doesn’t impose itself but instead invites close inspection, asking the viewer to consider the materials and processes that brought it into being.
