“Pearl”, 2018
Wood fired porcelains
4.5" wide x 3.5" deep x 2.5" tall

About the process:
This original handmade sculpture was woodfired in a traditional Japanese-style anagama kiln. The kiln was fed with wood every five to ten minutes until it reached temperatures of 2200 Fahrenheit over the course of five days. The wood ash settled onto the piece, melting into a beautiful glaze. The oysters and the pearls were both sculpted from an extra pale porcelain that stayed lighter than the shell and the beast. All the colors come the clay, the ash, and the flame.

About the piece:
Pearl is a very sweet and quite beast, a bit shy. She hides her vanities away, and keeps them as her own secret delight.
