47th theorem, 2000
ceramic, mixed media
The pendulum form is made
of two kinds of clay: "B-mix"
(the whitish clay) and "Cassius
Basaltic" (the dark clay).
I wanted to use whole slabs
to get the patchwork effect
instead of merely coloring
the surface with contrasting
slip. These two clays
aren't known for their strength in
sculpting or in firing,
so I'm pleased it survived both
processes with nary a crack.
I'm not always so lucky.
The wheels of the cart are
made of colored cast concrete.
