Technique: This work utilizes multiple processes and materials, including a slip cast form, a hand-built porcelain form, resin poured into ceramic forms, and a recycled ceramic base. With our recycled ceramics materials, we employ a unique technique where we synthesize the geologic process. In this process, the byproducts of ceramic studio production are recycled into geologic strata by fusing together in the kiln. We create a ceramic shell, line it with a glass release, fill the shell with the recycled materials, and then fire it together in the kiln.

Year of completion: 2022

L’opera affronta il passaggio del tempo in relazione alla durata della vita umana. La dimensione dell’opera coinvolge direttamente il corpo dell’osservatore: il processo geologico, la cristallizzazione di una colata, la fragilità. Materiali e processi propongono la contemplazione del proprio tempo.

The work faces the passage of time in relationship to a human lifespan. The scale of the piece directly implicates the viewer body: the geologic process, the frozen moment of a liquid pouring, the fragility. The materials and processes ask the viewer to contemplate their own timeframe
