This vase is hand-built using lava fleck clay, a material that gives the surface its subtle speckled texture and raw, concrete-like character. The form is low and grounded, with a wide base and a narrowed neck, that creates a strong sense of mass and stability. A field of pressed marks around the upper section introduces rhythm and structure, emphasising the vessel’s architectural quality.
Natural tonal variations and darkened recesses are the result of firing, highlighting the depth and texture of the clay. The piece embraces material honesty and imperfection, with visible traces of the hand and the kiln. Both sculptural and functional, this vase explores weight, surface, and form through a restrained, brutalist language.
