This wood-fired vase reflects the familiar colors of the waters and sky in Minnesota—The surface was shaped by flame, ash, and shifting kiln conditions into a swirl of sky, land and water. The lower portion reveals natural texture from the clay body, while the upper surface carries the visual weight of the firing and slip work.
Standing 15 inches tall and 8 inches wide, the piece balances structure with restraint, allowing the firing process to remain an active collaborator. The result is a vessel that reflects both intentional mark-making and the unpredictable character of wood firing—rooted in material, process, and place.
