Porcelain and earthenware are combined and fired at 1,150°C. The two clays react differently to heat – earthenware expands, while porcelain is inert – resulting in the black earthenware breaking through the porcelain. Rafael tries to maintain a balanced relationship with fire: while each has a job to do on its own, ultimately fire and artist work as a team.
