Head bowl, number 40

This unglazed porcelain Nerikomi bowl is hand built and smoke-fired. The source of inspiration is the human head, the crucible of our dreams. Barbara's pieces are very much influenced by her South African upbringing: she is drawn to irregular repetition, primitive mark making and soft, earthy colours. The pattern is the product of the tensions between natural perfection and chaos.
