This is the latest artwork to emerge from the studio: Pod.
It features three wheelthrown, manipulated, burnished and sawdust fired ceramic forms, woven into a pod-like structure made from willow, eucalyptus, bark and jute.
I love combining natural materials with ceramics,as they compliment each other so well.
A short statement about Pod:
Pod explores the natural environment, and via its interweaving construction the interconnection of human relationships and what they mean in the twenty-first century. The sculpture is made of small seed pod symbols made of clay fired in a pit dug into the ground and eucalyptus bark and small branches embracing the pods signifying the interwoven environment in which we live.
Dimensions: 66 x 16 x 9cm Price: $420.00 (any sales enquiries can be directed to my email address)
I hope you like Pod 🙂

Posted by Dawn Whitehand | April 8, 2013, 10:58 pmI agree w/Pete. Also, you create such a variety of work, but this vein / genre is my most favorite. This piece is magnificent, Dawn (and underpriced!) It’s worth much more in my eyes.
Posted by artdoesmatter | April 9, 2013, 12:54 amthanks so much Patricia… pricing artwork is so difficult! I never know which way to go… but I guess that’s all part of the greater scheme… or something! 🙂
