An Experiment : The Whale Vessel (formerly "The Boob")

by Lauren Jade

The Whale Vessel is the evolution of the original form "The Boob". This creation process was literally an experiment with form. As artists, Ari and I are constantly pushing the our own boundaries while learning what the clay will allow (which is quite a bit). That being said, we have lost a lot of pieces. Luckily, so far, the Whale vessel has done well. It still has to be fired twice; first, bisque fire and second, glaze fire. Thus, we pray to the kiln gods that it survives!
