Fluidity
Here, the clay acts as an armature - it is no longer the ground for the glaze as surface, but instead support for glaze as form. The alchemical and viscous properties of glazes are exploited to their maximum potential; sticking to objects, sticking objects together and flowing loosely through open space. The firing process and clay frame has allowed these meticulously calculated concoctions to reach a flow state, forming a focus upon a state of permanent fluidity. The frame contains and delimits something that would otherwise fluctuate in a state of free transformation.
