The
common daily ritual of picking food, piling it in containers,
can create
beautiful relationships between the shapes.
Consider
the iron as a three dimensional sketch
defining the container within
which to consider the
beauty of these forms and their shadows.
Pears
and apples have sensual curves
and satisfying shape in the hand.
They
have stature in mythologies,
religions and stories from the beginning
of time.
They
are very luscious, seductive, feminine fruit which
remain elegant
and a bit mysterious while being common
in some form on every continent
of the world.
An
egg is the most basic form of life;
it is echoed in the shape our
head.
Un-natural
glaze colors further emphasize
the sculptural beauty of each shape.
The
larger sculpture, created by all the shapes and
the spaces between,
is seen and understood because
of a suggested rather than a solid
container.
