Raku-Fire
Journey Vessel Series
Inspired by the dream journey of the western shamans, the vessels are maps for one's journey through the spirit worlds. It is a point of meditation, where one begins and ends their journey. It is where the seeker intends to find self knowledge and new beginnings.
Raku-fired works are taken out of the fire as they are glowing hot and then covered with wood shavings, papers and
grasses. The works are trapped in fire, smoke and ash producing the volcanic black and metallic crackled glazed surfaces.
