I'm exploring constructed open forms in ceramic. Precarious experimentation and inventing the process as I go motivate me. Maybe something good that I hadn't quite expected will happen--it's never completely predictable.

For this piece, I built nested dodecahedron shapes and painted them with underglaze colors inspired by the order of the visible spectrum.  I also used black and white to emphasize shape, line, and interior vs. exterior surfaces.  Breakage and repair in construction and reconstruction are embraced. Layers expanded, contracted, connected, and disconnected. Cone 6 firing with clear glaze caused more warping and more saturated color and shine, and improved structural strength.
