Glass Carriers.2016. Glass, slip-cast porcelain, cotton rope. ​
Carriers are for enjoying a small snack and drink for a double date on the beach. The materials are inspired by sand, as sand or silica is essential to both ceramics and glass. The outside surface of the porcelain cups and plates feature rough, revolved lines, from sand imbedded in the plaster during the model-making process. The glass was slumped to the forms perfectly, transforming a hard, fragile material to one that appears soft and liquid.
