Reef jar

This striking ceramic jar has coral reefs sculpted on the outside. The structure of the jar is made using the slab technique, then the coral reef is inspired by the marine life present in the sea around the Azores, like barnacles, sea urchin and some corals. All sea creatures are sculpted one by one and composed on these random ecosystems. This piece is glazed in selenium red using the pouring technique.
