This is a series of ceramic works that I have been working on for the past several years. The glaze and pigments flow when fired in the kiln, and the images completely change from before to after firing. Pottery is a series of unexpected events that can never be fully controlled. The works are created by accepting the phenomena that happen every time and responding to them continually.
