Working
typography onto ceramics came about after an experimental
collaboration with poet Jenny Bornholdt and ceramic artist,
Raewyn Atkinson. We combined our different skills and
made Pitcher
with Women, a set of three
vessels each containing a part of a poem Jenny had written
after Picasso. The words wind their way around each form
inside or out, black on black. For the vessel pictured,
a different project, we worked with a light band to carry
the words. |
