"The theme "CHAWAN" poses, for
me, a fundemental question of form
and function.
This concept is a challenge.
I am intrigued by the sculptural
possibilities of this particular form -
the surface and color are secondary.
After years of working in the
sophisticated material of porcelain, it
is like returning to the roots of
ceramics.
This little vessel, formed from low-fire
clay, is its very essence: earth, water and fire."
