Rethinking the Vessel, My Own Voice

A maker of containers all of my life in clay, at this point my vessels are simply sculptural forms. Inspired by natural forms, they become vehicles for the exploration of ideas of volume, negative/positive space, movement in three dimensions and complex surface. I imagine that these pots might have been unearthed in an archeological dig somewhere giving rise to questions about ancient cultures.
