An elliptical form raised on rounded symmetrical “gills”and decorated with a dark brown satin matte glaze.

Can dust or run under the tap to clean.

Interested in ideas of movement, rhythm and balance I began to make these “gilled” forms some years ago and am continuing to develop the theme. This is a simple piece which aims for symmetry and control, whilst still retaining the mark of the hand on the pinched gills. Providing different views from different angles and throwing interesting shadows in the sunlight, this piece can be varied in its display and is also pleasing to handle. Although controlled, it still has the organic feel that I love, looking like it might take off at any minute!
