Africa, with all it's riches and plights has been weighing on my mind heavily of late. So I have started a series of pinch pots that reflect the bounty and the starvation in the context of eating and serving food.
Here is the first prototype before bisque firing with my reference pic ~ quite surreal. I tried using slip but that was a disaster so I went back to underglaze on the inside.

I find that quite a haunting piece. Will be interested to see the rest of the series.
Thanks kat, it's meant to evoke an echo. I know it's not my usual but there you go. It's been an eventful few weeks in our land.
It's beautiful and, yes, haunting is absolutely the right word.
Beautiful work - quite inspired. Just discovering your blog through Kat - you have lots of great posts!
