What can a cup express about how it feels to be receptive? How can a pitcher convey the different attitudes in which we might pour out our thoughts and feelings? This series explores the vessel as embodiment of human impulses and emotions: restlessness, rejoicing, vulnerability, growth. Abstracted plant and animal imagery helps me to evoke this analogy between object and living thing. I enjoy dodging the boundaries between the functional and the purely aesthetic, discovering the latent meaning in mundane objects.
