Short Description
Collection of pieces hand-turned from a hollow cilinder of extruded ceramic.
The process begins with the deformation of a hollow cylinder of extrusioned clay and the cracks that are generated. For the creation of a bowl, the only way to conserve the cracks is to place the cylinder in the wheel and push from the centre towards the periphery. By expanding the grey mass while spinning, unique and random textures appear on the surface leaving the coloured interior as the only controlled element.
