Vessel

A container for holding something.

The vessel, often thought of as a domestic object, associated with eating and sharing time and space together or for holding or storing things. 

These vessels, created while experimenting with glazes, are taken on journeys and used as performative elements or props, transforming a still object into a collaborator, inseparable from the artist’s actions during, for example, a ceremony of remembrance.  A container to hold emotions, ashes, life experience; blending with the landscape and acting as a metaphor for life, death, decay, imbalance and loss.
