Vessel No. 2710

Martin's series of black vessels draws its inspiration from Central African Dogon sculptures, with traces of ancient rituals and clear contours. Martin created a rough surface while shaping the vessel then pressed fire clay into it. The resulting rough and smooth textures react differently in the kiln, producing the final interplay of brown-black hues.
