After being sculpted in plastercene, I then rescupted the
plaster cast. The clay was from the original subterranean cave
under the Tileworks and was crude. Each brocade had a different
custom mix, that I made from the few antique glazes that were
available, some only had colored slip, others were underglazed.
All were fired differently, different temperatures, including
Raku .
The ancient effect was intentional as was some of the crackling.
The individual brocades vary, approx. 1" deep, x 3.5"
long, x 2" wide. |
