Information about this artwork
This ceramic sculpture was made from cones that were thrown on the potters wheel then cut up and joined together to create a whole form.
Medium: Stoneware, slips, fired to 1140c.
Dimensions: H14 W34 D24cm
Created: 28/8/2012
Inspiration
This ceramic sculpture falls under my series called Open Sculptures. These investigate ways of seeing inside and out space using colour and line. The intention is to draw and scatter the eye to investigate different parts of the form simultaneously.
The inspiration behind this work stems from my fascination with stone circles in the UK such as Stonehenge. They are places full of mystery, it invites me to ask questions and imagine. The sculpture suggests an architectural presence and can also relate to clouds.
Unfortunately this sculpture broke, however I decided to categories it here as its still a favourite piece of mine.
